Guard watches coast for oil slick's first wave

[CRedskinsRule]

I am curious, has anyone on here stopped using BP, or any other BP related, companies. I haven't really heard of a national or international boycott effort, though I know there are protesters.

Yes, I do feel like inserting a "BP Clean OUR Coast" truck sign joke at this juncture. Maybe Kapipal has an account for that?

after seeing those pics of oil drenched brown pelicans i thought about giving some BP stations the business (the business being an obnoxious guy ranting and raving) but they are locally owned and operated. im sure joe schmoo gas station owner gets screwed by BP as well.

I was wondering the same thing. NPR had a story about that recently, that BP gas stations have suffered and could suffer more.

I feel bad for the station owners, but I won't stop at a BP anymore. It may be a very small hit to BP, but if enough people join in, the individual station owners will change to another provider when their contracts are up, or will file lawsuits against BP to allow them to change suppliers.
