I've been angry, upset, amused..but tonight I was finally brought to tears. Oddly enough, it wasn't the picture of another bird mired in oil or another dead dophin, as upsetting as that is.
It was when a man, the owner of an oyster company in Louisiana told his employees today that the last oyster was going down the conveyer. The faces of his employees -- scared and sad were bad enough. But when the owner broke down, telling them that they were great employees... his emotions were so poignant, that I found myself crying with him.

Damn this crisis.
