“This order [i.e. capitalism] is now bound to the technical and economic conditions of machine production which today determine the lives of all the individuals who are born into this mechanism, not only those directly concerned with the economic acquisition, with irresistible force. Perhaps it will so determine them until the last ton of fossilized coal is burnt.”
—Max Weber, 1905

Scientists have worried about this possibility for years. I had heard them discuss the possibility of much colder weather in northern Europe, but I don't recall anyone speaking of a much warmer gulf and all that implies.
And yet we still have nutjobs who deny that global warming even exists. And I can just see it now - they will claim that global warming must be wrong because the weather got colder, not warmer.
Meanwhile... virtually negligible changes from Friday's MMS report:
http://www.mms.gov/ooc/press/2005/press0919.htm
Today's shut-in oil production is 837,648 BOPD. This shut-in oil production is equivalent to 55.84% of the daily oil production in the GOM, which is currently approximately 1.5 million BOPD. Approximately 35% of shut in oil is as a result of onshore infrastructure problems.
Today's shut-in gas production is 3.375 BCFPD. This shut-in gas production is equivalent to 33.75% of the daily gas production in the GOM, which is currently approximately 10 BCFPD.
The cumulative shut-in oil production for the period 8/26/05-9/19/05 is 24,735,216 bbls, which is equivalent to 4.518 % of the yearly production of oil in the GOM (approximately 547.5 million barrels).
The cumulative shut-in gas production 8/26/05-9/19/05 is 115.919 BCF, which is equivalent to 3.176% of the yearly production of gas in the GOM (approximately 3.65 TCF).
