Has it occurred to anyone to test the water along the Gulf? I know I have heard that the EPA and BP are monitoring it. But what about Joe or Jane public going down to the waters edge and getting a small sample of the water and taking it for testing. What level of chemicals are in the water? Not just oil but the dispersant? I am thinking not only to look at the water where there is obvious oil washing ashore. What does swimming in water treated with these chemicals do to a person?
For that matter catch some fish in areas that are not supposed to have oil reach them yet. What is in the fish, crabs, oysters etc.?
Is anyone doing any kind of independent testing like this?
Do people know what they are swimming in? Even in areas where it is supposed to be safe to swim (or fish)?
Prayers for healing of the gulf and a positive end to this crisis.
Blessings to all,
Nellie
