Coast Guard's new oil-leak estimate higher

The Coast Guard revised the amount of oil spewing from a damaged wellhead at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico to 5,000 barrels — or 210,000 gallons — a day, five times higher than earlier estimates.

Remember - - this is the new, safe, leak proof technology which justifies opening up our coastlines to offshore oil drilling.

Time to reconsider?
