The oil spill disaster in the Gulf of Mexico gets worse every day, but we've been assured that everything will be done to restore the Gulf to its pre-spill condition.

If you're counting on BP assuming responsibility and thinking that the situation will be righted as quickly as possible, it's likely you're you're going to be very sad after viewing this video of what it was like back in 2006 at the Exxon Valdez spill site. When the video was filmed in 2006 it would be 17 years after the Valdez spill.

Have a look, but sit down first. I hope that this isn't what we have to look forward too.
