    Headed down to the Beau Rivage this weekend

    If you are in the mood for a steak, the casino's are quite good. BR Prime is probably the best at the Beau, but Ruth Chris at the Hard Rock and 32 at the IP are also very good.

    Question for MS Coast residents about the oil

    will be the ones hardest hit. The barries Islands look like they are going to take a beating from the oil. I don't even know any locals who even visit the front beaches.

    More information regarding the BP disaster...

    I personally do not think the actuators were sized correctly. They may have been sized to close the BOP under normal wellbore pressure, but I don't think they were sized sufficiently to close the BOP under a blowout situation. KennyB www.fishingmgc.net

    Brantely, Why can't the drill the relief well shallower and tie into it at a much shallower depth? This would create a lot shorter route for the relief well, which could take a shorter period of time. By drilling it how they are drilling it now, are they trying to save the well? Are they being...

    The way the oil company looks at it optimus is that this extra equipment can create false readings and close improperlly, this causes considerable down time for the oil companies.
