38% OF COREXIT OIL DISPERSANT IS A SOLVENT THAT DISSOLVES PLASTIC & DESTROYS RED BLOOD CELLS - 4 TIMES MORE TOXIC THAN OIL
Here is what was discovered regarding COREXIT during and after the Exxon Valdez clean-up:

2-butoxyethanol (an ingredient of COREXIT) is a paint solvent, dry cleaning solvent, also used in dissolving plastics.

Corexit causes hemolytic anemia (low RBCs)... the body prematurely destroys its own red blood cells and worse. Workers feel tired all the time from blood damage. Their children are at greater risk for brain tumors and leukemia from over exposure to this solvent.

38% of COREXIT 9527 is made up of this toxic solvent that dissolves plastic.

See this GLP link for additional background
Thread: ALERT! If you live in the south and start having intestinal issues it may be due to Corexit

Here is a link for the Exxon Valdez clean-up workers who have hundreds of further links exposing what COREXIT does. Some of the comments from clean-up workers are heart wrenching as they were written while they were dying from the chemical dispersant effects.

This is what all the Gulf fishermen who have been conned into clean-up can expect. Even worse, this is what all those who live along the Gulf coast can expect... and I'm one of them.

* May cause adverse reproductive effects (maternal and paternal fertility, fetoxicity)
* May cause birth defects (teratogenic)
* May cause cancer (tumorigenic)
* Penetrates intact skin easily and can cause systemic effects and central nervous system depression
* Inhalation: May cause irritation of the respiratory tract. May affect behavior (analgesia), behavior/central nervous system (headache, drowsiness, dizzness, stuttering, coma, weakness, ataxia, slurred speech, loss of coordination and judgement, personality changes, analgesia, blurred vision, tremor, excitement, somnolence), sense organs, the gastrointestinal tract (nausea, vomiting), metabolism (metabolic acidosis), respiration (dyspnea), urinary system (kidneys – hematuria, albuminuria, polyuria, oliguria, renal failure), liver (liver damage).
* Exposure to high vapor concentration may also cause corneal or lens opacity of the eyes.
* Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. May affect behavior/central
nervous system (see inhalation), respiration (dyspnea), metabolism, cardiovascular system.
* Chronic Potential Health Effects: Inhalation and Ingestion: Prolonged or repeated inhalation or ingestion may affect the liver, blood (changes in red blood cell count, pigmented or nucleated red blood cells, microcytosis with or without anemia, erythropenia, reticulocytosis, granulocytosis, leukocytosis), urinary system (kidneys -hematuria), metabolism (weight loss), endocrine system (spleen, thymus, pancreas). Prolonged or repeated inhalation of high concentrations may also cause lung hemmorrhage, congestion, bronchopneumonia.
* Classified in Canada as CLASS D-1A: Material causing immediate and serious toxic effects (VERY TOXIC).
* Classified in Canada as CLASS D-2B: Material causing other toxic effects (TOXIC)

A 1993 report from Exxon-Mobil Chemicals regarding COREXIT:

Page 4 states that exposure causes "hemolytic anemia and kidney damage evidenced by paleness and red coloration of urine"

On page 2, it states that if COREXIT is spilled "EVACUATE AREA".

Page 3 states "Stability condition to avoid: HEAT, FLAME, SPARKS, STATIC ELECTRICITY, OR OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION".

What can we expect from just a single bolt of lightning????

what happens when it burns?


This can't be a good idea!!!...WTF are they doing???

GRAND ISLE, La. — BP said Thursday that it plans to boost its ability to directly capture hundreds of thousands of gallons of oil gushing from a well at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico by early next week.

Kent Wells, BP's senior vice president of exploration and production, said a semi-submersible drilling rig would capture and burn about 420,000 gallons of oil daily. Once on board, the oil and gas collected from the well would be sent down a boom and burned at sea.

A drill ship already at the scene can process a maximum of 756,000 gallons of oil daily that's sucked up through a containment cap sitting on the well head

Now didn't the EPA tell BP to stop using it, and BP told the EPA to f--k off, and the EPA said, "Okay". Why did this company get to ignore our government? wtf?
Let's all tell the government to take a flying leap and see what happens.
All I got out of this is that BP is above the law.

As on a staircase go in grace,
Carrying the firelight on your face

What are the symptoms of hemolytic anemia?

The following are the most common symptoms of hemolytic anemia. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:

* abnormal paleness or lack of color of the skin
* jaundice, or yellowing of the skin, eyes, and mouth
* dark color to urine
* fever
* weakness
* dizziness

Butoxyethanol has an LD50 of 2.5g/kg in rats.[5] Laboratory tests by the United States National Toxicology Program have have shown that sustained inhalation of high concentrations (100 - 500 ppm) of 2-butoxyethanol can cause adrenal tumors in animals.[6] American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) reports that 2-butoxyethanol is carcinogenic in animals.[7] OSHA does not regulate the butoxyethanol as a carcinogen.

From another post from today at GLP, they are going to start burning the oil this weekend or Monday. 420,000 gallons a day(?) with the dispersant already in the water?

If this stuff is so deadly, what is going to happen to the air quality? The burning oil is going to be bad enough, but now with this deadly chemical also in the fumes?

I am really beginning to believe "they" want to kill everyone in the Southeast!
