What is going on in the Gulf of Mexico?
I'm hearing that people are getting sick from swimming in their own swimming pools in their own backyards.

I second your quest peter... I would also like to know if there is validity to these claims. Unfortunately I have no answer myself, but I do not doubt the possibility of this being true.
Hi eilander
I'm keeping my attention on hurricane paula and my fingers crossed in the hope that it doen't make it into the Gulf.

I'm struggling to keep up with all this. Is Trump really planning to attack North Korea if they do another nuclear test? Is it seriously being considered as a possibility? Or is it just sabre rattling? And is this type of brinksmanship the best approach to foreign policy?
