Gulf coast oil spill

Dispersants, people. A disbursant would be something quite different, nor am I sure it is a valid word, as disburser covers the matter. Sure, they're spending a lot of money... but those chemicals are still dispersants. Which make a dispersoid, ya wanna go that far.

Unhappy count

The Fish and Wildlife Commission puts out a daily count of dead animals due to the oil spill. Here's the count for the last 24 hours:

429 sea turtles
1,128 birds
51 dolphins and other mammals

Multiply these numbers by the days the oil spill has gone on and will go on. The poor critters! How many of them will be left by August (or whenever)?
