Invisible Oil Plume?

Indeed.

The oil is there, at least 22 miles of it. You just can’t see it.

A lot of the crude that spewed from BP’s ruptured well is still in the Gulf of Mexico, but it’s far below the surface and invisible. And it’s likely to linger for months on end, scientists said Thursday in the first conclusive evidence of an underwater plume of oil from the disaster.

The crisis is not over, people.

But wait… as Commodity Surge points out:

the alleged 21-mile long oil plume, identified by the Times as “new research,” and the Post as “evidence” of the oil still lingering in the Gulf or some unknown location in the vast seas.

The problem is, this “evidence” was from two months ago, and was by no means new, as the Times asserts, and isn’t considered evidence, as the Post asserts, even by the “academic” scientists proffering the information.

I believe in the magical invisible oil plume… do you?
