Hyperbole of Hyperbole

[edit]

I've been putting links to the sources for the hyperbole section and making edits to the choice of language by the user who created it. I watched the video and tried to pull as direct quotes as possible but it seems this section in general is biased compared to the greater volume of speaking Simmons has been doing on the BP Oil Spill overall. I recommend removal of how Simmons comments were a direct correlation to the drop in stock price for BP as well as reasons for its recovery or, at a minimum, several <needs citation> mentions. B.K.

Is the last sentence -- "More alarming than the technical criticism lets on is the political ramifications of oil being controlled by a country in the most volatile area of the world. Especially since oil is responsible for most of the transportation energy in the world." -- really pertinent to the article? Ejectgoose 02:13, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, it should go. --Alexxx1 (talk/contribs) 05:52, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
