Update on the Gulf Oil Spill

This is from www.matteroftrust.org please join us in supporting them!
We have been monitoring this spill through the burn off attempts and now we're being told, unofficially, that it is 75 miles off shore in some areas and the weather is turning which may mean the oil doesn't hit shore today.

"Unified Command" has taken over the situation. This happens in every oil spill now when a State of Emergency is declared. It is officially under Homeland Security (HS) now and although Coast Guard and Municipalities and State officials have people in the room, HS makes the final decisions.

We have lots of boom ready to go to where they tell us it will be most effective. If you want to see what "boom" looks like check out our latest youtube. Boom blocks, protects and contains oil spills.

We know many of you have more hair/fur/waste wool and nylons ready to send. And that many of you are in the affected areas.

Please let us know if you don't want our updates. As you know, we almost never send out mass emails, but this spill is so extreme, we may need your people power to help get noticed by the right people in the room. And we're told we have a bigger chance than the other "alternative oil spill clean up methods" that HS and BP are talking to, because the public will rally around a nationwide community effort like ours.

Best wishes,

Lisa
