At Senator Byrd's funeral, one speaker, a female, told the story of the health care legislation vote when Senator Byrd said "This one is for Ted Kennedy," then she started to cry like what Senator Byrd did was so noble. Actually I might have been moved if he had said. "This vote is for the American people," but that would have meant he was voting agaisnt the bill.
One question that has been debated is how much of the oil spill has been siphoned off each day?
Actually, there isn't an oil spill in the gulf, and no oil has ever been siphoned off. "How can you say such a stupid thing?" you may ask.
Simple. It isn't a spill, it is a leak. To siphon, the discharge end of the hose, tube, pipe, whatever has to be lower than the source. That isn't the case here.
