An interesting map circulating the internet. It allows to overlay the BP Oil Disaster over your area of residence to put the adverse impacts into perspective. The link is ifitwasmyhome.com and the image above (click on it for enlargement) is a screen-shot overlaying Albuquerque, NM.

While viewing the interactive map, keep in mind the calls for more deregulation of an industry that currently enjoys many subsidies, the "drill, baby, drill!" chants, the Twitter of Sarah Palin blaming environmentalists for the BP Oil Disaster, and the politicians promises. When it comes to the latter, follow the money. You might find it interesting of who is contributing to the campaigns of politicians that promise to roll back the New Mexico Pit Rule -- and more.
