I believe our legislation, while not perfect, represents a reasonable, strong, smart, and lasting approach for dealing with automobile safety concerns.
And do you know the industry practice, in terms of the consumers' knowledge about the software updates to the manufacturers or the dealerships or authorized repair centers?
I'm disturbed by the February 2009 document that BP submitted to the Minerals Management Service.
It is easy for us to think of oil that washes up on the shore, and on the beaches.
We are concentrating on two things. First is to get this leak stopped and get it cleaned up; and, second, we as a responsible party are going to deal with economic impacts.
The law says that BP is the responsible party, and you have confirmed that today, and I appreciate that.
I do have a concern--and I know a lot of others do as well--about the impact this will have on sea creatures.
But is it safe to say that the environmental consequences of this spill may go on for years?
