I read last weeks issue and was not impressed with the article about the drilling mud spill offshore.... First he did not know what was in the mud. It is easy ti find out. He was outraged by this but had no scientific or practical knowledge about what went on. It is a vegetable oil based product with barite being one of the main ingredients. So without knowing he went on a pointless rant that had no facts other than there was a spill. With all the outrage about this drilling program I wondered where they were last year when Shell drilled 3 wells lust a few miles away in the next block. I imagine deep water horizon would be the touch stone for him. The only similarities between drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and offshore Canada are they have rigs that turn to the right and water. We have so much more regulations here that as you saw long before we knew about it they had stopped and notified the authorities. Also he felt (wrongly in my opinion) that having the regulators also doing the marketing for this work was wrong. Well at least the right hand knows what the left is doing.
So in closing you can be happy that someone read your article even though I disagree with the view point. Please do some research and get the facts before you fire a missive article.

What was once a great newspaper is now somewhere between Frank Magazine and the National Enquirer. I... think that it is time that they invested into good reporters because those that are representing them now is a joke! See More
