“Out in the Oil with Captain Dave”
by Elizabeth Grossman
A Gulf cleanup worker explains how hard it is for
skimmers to make a dent in the oil problem and why some
workers are concerned about their health.

The following
comment was made: |
| The most important protective
equipment for most workers is air-tight eye goggles. For
the population centers, too. When the wind blows in your
direction the chemical can get into your eyes, too! When
I realized in 2001 that someone in my family was health
damaged in 1989 by working on the beach cleanup with
Inipol / only 10% 2-butoxyethanol, I went on a quest to
learn what this chemical was. (Corexit used in gulf is
30% - 60% strong of 2-butoxyethanol. STOP using Corexit!)
I recognize the signs, and you are describing them. It
is the most commonly used glycol ether, but that doesn't
make it safe. It causes a body to go autoimmune and back
in those days, Exxon c/o VECO required a check for blood
in urine (from the autoimmune hemolytic anemia this
glycol ether causes) Eventually when more symptoms pile
on you get the Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction
Syndrome or one of the 'military syndromes.' Biggest
misconception in health today is that flu symptoms are
caused by a virus. NO! They are caused from glycol ether
poisoning. I think gamma globulin would help sick
workers; and I think new EPA policies would help our
Nation. July 10, 2010 |

"Since
there are the serious health consequences for use of
inipol EAP 22 with 2-butoxyethanol per its MSDS
per gear provided*
... what a frightening situation...when you're young you
think you can trust your employer and the money looks
good not to mention you never think anything bad is
going to happen to you" |
Per CNN's America Morning on 7-12-2010 Amber Lyon
reported on Oil Spill's impact underwater in the gulf.
To date they say 210 million (or was it 1.5 million)
gallons of dispersant have been put into the Gulf of
Mexico. website: contact: ABC

Someone should look into the harm of
the
2-butoxyethanol
component of Corexit. |
| Epidemiologists should see an
increase in fatigue (blood
in urine, etc) and an
increase in autoimmune issues, cancers,
birth defects, vision loss, memory loss,
CFIDS, CFS, FM. Exposure to this glycol
ether 'looks like'
the flu. |

| The harm of glycol ether must have begun back when
people started exploding things at each other; but it
has become increasingly severe for most of this past
century. Even our Presidents' doctors should
consider the harm of glycol ether. When President
FDR died April, 1945 it was more probably the advanced
anemia of CFIDS &/or organs shutting down, NOT a
cerebral hemorrhage. Two years later when Henry
Ford died, the same diagnosis and the same 'more
probable cause.' |

Pres FDR
*
died 4-12-1945: Pres FDR didn't
have polio, either. He had GBS, an autoimmune
issue that causes paralysis.

US President #34:
Dwight D. Eisenhower
1953 - 1961
(Suspect autoimmune
issue) He
died, after a long
illness, on March
28, 1969.
What did President
Eisenhower's doctors
call 'the
runs?'
(what we call
diarrhea)
an
immediate
explosive evacuation
of the intestines
for no apparent
reason.
What
else did he have? Crohn’s disease
*
Heart
issues

I recognize this type of 'exposure'
sign in me too;
Body is maxed out on this chemical &
complains before others would!
Audrey Hepburn is an example of health
decline from explosive chemicals in her teens
& 4 months before she died
