Remember that. The whole oil industry and government failures causing such devastation to fragile ecosystems with barrels upon barrels of oil. It is still there.
I’m actually impressed the CNN showed a greater attention span than I have come to expect from many major media sources. Usually once the main crisis is over, the media tends to not give us much follow up.
I just want to have in depth discussions of politics, religion, and sex--you know, all those things "they" say you shouldn't talk about in "polite" society. I'll be expressing opinions here. If you have a problem with that, feel free to move on. If I claim something, I try to back it up with facts. If you want to contest those facts, feel free.
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestion please feel free to drop me a message.
If you want to join in the discussion leave a comment, start a blog, or you can can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, Buzz, YouTube, or Flickr.
Sources:For general news I usually trawl these sites: BBC, CNN, NPR, The New York Times, Aljazeera, and Reuters.
To feed and and focus news stories, I have several blogs plugged into my RSS feed.
For politics I go through SCOTUS Blog, Unrepentant Old Hippie, The New Civil Rights Movement, Prop 8 Trial Tracker, Feministing, and The Progressive Professor.
For religious news I read WorldWide Religious News and Wren's Nest News.
For most of my most of my sex news, I go to Violet Blue's Tiny Nibbles. [Warning: This site is Not Safe For Work. +18 content and links.]
I also have several friends that link interesting stories via Facebook, Twitter, and E-mail.
I spend a lot of time listening to various podcast which include:
Politically left: Blast The Right, Democracy Now!, MSNBC Countdown.
Politically centered: Common Sense.
