Like many of you, I'm staring in utter horror and disbelief at the ecological catastrophe unfolding in Gulf of Mexico.
Indeed, the Deepwater Horizon will likely go down in history alongside the Exxon Valdez, Bhopal, Chernobyl and other examples of massive infrastructure failure destroying the environment on a mind-numbing scale.
And, as I go through all the articles and analysis to date, I am struck by one simple fact: it is likely that they didn't have a plan for the inevitable.
And if the story comes out as I believe it will, I will consider that unforgivable -- simply because it was avoidable.
