The fact that it was in a must less populated part of the world, in many ways make the Exxon disaster worse. Since we have so many people on the ground, observing the effects of the BP disaster when they walk down the beach, or try to go fishing, the effects will be harder to hide. And with things like twitter and facebook, we have a great way for the ordinary person to keep the pressure on. Also, the amount of oil being released here is huge, and it is going to affect a much larger area, if it does not disperse quickly. Lets just hope they get this under control. From what I have read, people at BP/Haliburton should go to jail for letting the drilling go ahead, when there was damage to the saftey mechanisms.
