Well, the hurricanes could be the saviour, from what I've read. If a hurricane comes in from the east, it will whip all the oil out into the gulf and by the time it arrives in the Carib, it will be enough dispersed to allow Mother Nature to degrade the oil biologically.
If one comes in from the south or west, then you guys are gonna get it bad as the stuff that's already floating near you will get washed further inland by the storm surges....
