21-Mile Plume from BP (NYSE:BP) Oil Spill Based on 2-month Old Data

Is 21-mile Oil Plume a Hoax?


Incredibly, the fading New York Times and Washington Post jumped all over the alleged 21-mile long oil plume, identified by the Times as "new research," and the Post as "evidence" of the oil still lingering in the Gulf or some unknown location in the vast seas.

The problem is, this "evidence" was from two months ago, and was by no means new, as the Times asserts, and isn't considered evidence, as the Post asserts, even by the "academic" scientists proffering the information.

Funny how they just came out with this new evidence two months after the fact. And of course it is an "invisible" plume, something that can't be confirmed by the naked eye of human beings. Convenient isn't it?

This alleged discovery was made by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts. They evidently decided to keep the discovery of the 21-mile long plume, also described as 65 stories high and over a mile wide, secret from everyone else until Thursday, August 19.

Oh yes, and it somehow happened to coincide with a House subcommittee hearing on the oil spill. Amazing timing!

There are enormous questions about the theory these academic scientists are saying, the biggest being the question of how the oil could have got to where it was said to have created the plume.

Somehow a miracle seems to have occurred, with the oil no longer floating as has been proven in the past, but it defied its normal behavior and stopped about halfway up to the surface and lingered there in an enormous, but completely clear and invisible way. It's a miracle?

So how are the scientists at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution covering their rear-ends with this? While still making the assertion the oil is still out there, they can no longer say where, as it has been taken away by the "ocean currents." Really, they said that.

With a serious scientific face, they than conclude that more than likely it has moved on to a different location. You just can't make this kind of stuff up.

So this invisible oil plume which is completely acting different than proven behavior of oil floating to the surface, which is 21 miles long and as tall as a 65 story building, has now disappeared (laughter in the background).

How convenient they waited for two months to release their information at the hearing.

So why did the idea of a gigantic oil plume which can't be traced or seen, and which acts completely different than oil in the past, defying the physics of it? It's all to do with the warm Gulf waters which naturally create ideal conditions for oil-eating microbes.

They had to destroy the idea that the microbes have eaten most of the oil, so they have this unprecedented behavior of oil not going to the surface as usual, but somehow stopping in the colder waters of the Gulf.

That's important to their narrative because then they can then say the oil can't be consumed at the pace suggested by the report released which said up to 75 percent of the oil was gone from the Gulf by natural means, mostly from evaporation and microbes eating it.

That also takes care of the evaporation reality as well. If the oil doesn't reach the surface, it can't evaporate. Can it?

In case you think I'm an apologist for the U.S. government in most matters, I'm not, but there's an agenda here, and I'll get to it in a moment.

But for "academic" scientists to act as if some type of miracle has happened with the Gulf oil which defies all the normal behavior and characteristics of an oil spill, is borderline religion, as you have to must have a lot of faith and be naive to believe this outrageous yarn.

So what is this all about, and why has this information miraculously come to the public eye at the hearing today? It's all about money. Period!

Do some research on universities to see where the money is going. Remember not long ago when some departments at Berkeley attacked others because BP had granted them money? Do you think it was because they were truly outraged? No. Universities are hurting, and they're looking for money to continue their operations, and believe it when I say science departments and related areas are included.

This is why almost every scientist quoted in the two articles said the government figures were too "optimistic." They had been viewing the oil spill as a great opportunity to generate some funding for specific departments, and the report from the government blew their little agendas to bits.

There is nothing more to this. Read the articles closely and dissect what they're saying. It's nonsense and gibberish. There's proof of nothing other than the possible foundation for a science fiction novel.

No proof is evident that these alleged plumes continue to exist, and its convenient to assert that in order to generate funding so these organizations and universities can garner taxpayer dollars in order to protect us from the great, invisible oil monster hiding in the deep blue sea.
