Well this is going to get interesting

I'm no mathematician. I'll be the first to tell you that. You're the one to initially throw out numbers, so I'm not sure why math is being brought into the conversation. You speculate and when the final news comes out, you pick one of your guesses and tell us all that you were right. At the end of the day, you're a punchline.

Where is the guessing these are their numbers!

If'n I was head of a big oil company I would pay little POS oil companies to move my oil around real cheap-like... see? (gangster voice)

That way if (when) oil gets spilled (because they used the cheapest method possible) the little POS pays the cleanup/big fines (insurance company fits in here somewhere).

Kind of sounds like a drug ring.

I can multiply the number of barrels spilled by the price per barrel. Beyond that, you're guessing.

One of the issues is I donl;t think they are required to be bonded at a high enough level to pay for the cleanup most times. Up here some companies have walked away from salt water spills in the past that exceeded their bonded coverage.

In this issue bonding wouldn't make any difference. Bonding insures jobs being completed. Insurance pays for clean ups of this sort. Now if this pipeline company hires somebody to clean up the mess that company may have to buy a bond to insure they complete the job. You are not required by the state of ND to be bonded anymore in construction. I'm not sure what all that entails though. I don't know if bonds are exempt from law for all companies unless required by the company doing the hiring or what.

Now go back and work on reading since guessing would imply making a prediction instead of asking a question such as I did!

Maybe these protesters could help clean up this oil spill, would provide a paycheck, help mother earth, and make them feel neat

3rd graders still live with their parents, dean. In essence, you would be the 3rd grader. Telling people to read and do math, you are obviously compensating for your own disabilities. In the end, I feel bad for you. I just wish you would realize the situation and come around like a normal person.

The only new news coming out right now is just talking about how this spill validates what the protesters have been saying or people boycotting wells Fargo for financing the pipeline.

Oil comes from the Earth and the Earth will process it. Saltwater too, but that stuff is vile.

This is awesome because it's like u just realized how full of shit Dean really is, or u finally just had the courage to say it. Either way I may have just gained a little respect for Dirty.
