Is this the end of life as we know it?

Oil is a poison.

Top kill fail.

Oil is a poison

Plume found miles from prime ocean fishing off the coast of Florida.

Oil is a poison.

Oil reaches loop current in the Gulf of Mexico.

How much oil is gushing?  5,000 bbl per day sez BP/Government.  But wait BP sez the siphon is working to the tune of 5,000 bbl per day, but the live video feed shows the reality.  Oops for the sea creatures.

BP has used 700,000 gallons of oil dispersant.  It has bought 33 percent of world stock of oil dispersant.

Making the oil disperse from visible globules to microscopic level only increases the toxicity for sea life.  For BP it is "out of sight = out of mind".

Bacteria does eat the oil but in doing so depletes the ocean of oxygen that effectively creates "dead zones" by having such low levels of O2 content that higher marine animals cannot survive.

How many gushers are there in the Deepwater Horizon area?

Matt Simmons,energy adviser to President George W. Bush, is an adviser to the Oil Depletion Analysis Centre, and is a member of the National Petroleum Council and the Council on Foreign Relations, thinks that the real gusher(s) is NOT being televised.
