Why is BP taking all the blame?

You are correct, I was looking at KM for France and Miles for Texas... My point still stands!

OK, no problem. At least you are man enough to acknowledge your mistakes, kudos for that. In actual fact Europe is around 4 million square miles, which includes Alaska and Hawaii and makes it slightly bigger than the USA.

Dixie stated what he meant; he was using hyperbole to make a point, and it was obvious he was talking about Western Europe...So if you are going to include all of Europe's land mass you need to include Canada, Mexico, North Pole and Greenland as all of North America's land mass.

I have a lot of time for Dixie. He is quite articulate, even when he is totally wrong, which he is on this occasion.

All of Europe could fit inside of Texas, with room for Turkey too.
 
So the oil is washing up to the shores of Washington now?

So if an oil spill happened in Portsmouth and you lived in Liverpool you'd not be concerned, affected, entitled to an opinion?

There are numbers of truckers, restaurants, cannaries, local importers etc dependednt on the Gulf fisheries.

I probably live nearer to the Gulf than you do. All this continual analysis is just bullshit mostly, they are getting on with it and it should be capped shortly. Many people's eyes have been opened over here to how partisan the US is and anti-British to boot.

I suggest that you go reread the thread and especially who said what and when.

A better suggestion is that you get a grip and understand I can chime in when I want and not when you say it's OK. You would also do well to take your own advise and see where Dix already explained his exageration.

Yes, only after I pointed out that he was wrong did he say that he was exaggerating.
