Goodnight AC360 team and fellow bloggers.
Good show,,,,Good comments.
@Starr, Maybe the intelligence agencies are lucky because they are more prepared than previously.
Good night everyone.
You were just sounding like somebody who's gunning for his own Travel Channel show! =0)
I have a hair salon in St. Charles Missouri that is collecting hair to send to the gulf. The hair is shipped to whatever location they advise us and the hair is put into nylons and the mesh booms. They are then tied together and put in the gulf to soak up the oil spill. To my knowledge there are over 370,000 salon sending hair. Anderson have you heard anything about this, or if it is doing any good????
Good night .
Good Night Everyone! Sleep well and enjoy your weekend!
They were showing the oil in the wetland and making statement on various news station that the fish could be contaminated. I don't believe they will serve bad fish in New Orleans
Of course that heist was an inside job! Who would hang their priceless art outside? 😉
Thank you & good night Anderson & Team 360. Really excellent show tonight.
Good night All, i wish you a safe and pleasant day tomorrow. Really great blog tonight (as always).
Go AC- i think you are quite right about New Orleans.
Thank God they are moving forward on financial regulations in the Senate! I don't get it why the Rep's continue to try and hold up legislation that we really want and need.
Good night Anderson and Gary and bloggers Emily, Mike, Starr, Nancy, Megan, and all!
I like the fact that Obama is conservative with money but there is certain situations where you have to splurge. We should put more into the spill and just make BP pay for it later. You make me want to visit there, I have a good fried who lives in New Orleans .
Stop bragging, AC, about your awesome weekend! Haha! =0) You're making me jealous AND hungry! New Orleans is the bomb! Haven't been there since i was twelve but i had a great time (and i was only twelve!)
Good Night every one – thanks for sharing all your knowledge and views.
I am starting to like expressing my opinions and thanks for the opportunity every one

Yes, let's believe Landis the liar when he points fingers at other atheletes... that guy denied, denied, denied, made his mom stand next to him... he was all over the news in PA back then. What a jerk.
anderson your right viva la new orleans 🙂 i love that city and people to there's nothing like it

Good night and thank you for another great show. Great reporting can make a difference.
One ticket to New Orlean, please!
I'll look forward to AC360 Friday!
I hope to visit New Orleans soon.
Armstrong doping? Oh. OHHHH!....
Jo Ann,
"The Paris art heist sounds like an inside job. Picasso and Matisse are the artists that are stolen most often."
I agree!!
Just watched the other videos related to the race study. Did anyone else notice that the OLDER kids didn't exhibit negative feelings towards race? Which shows that these feelings are being implanted at a very young age but weeded out as the child matures socially.
Anderson, I thought "The Spotted Cat" had closed! Great to hear it is open again.
Wow. A PSA on 360, by AC.
I do not believe that BP has ever considered trying to close the oil leak. Instead they are trying everything they can to come up with solutions to capture that oil. They don't want to seal the leak and lose out on getting the oil, they need to add to their 2 billion dollar a month profit.
Good night Anderson, 360 Team, Jo Ann, Mike, David, Megan, Nancy, Starr, Casey & Bloggers!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
You're right Anderson...New Orleans ROCKS!!!
awful for New Orleans!
I agree with Beach Berny, BP is just worried about re-capturing the oil; they don't want to stop the leaks. They sure can do something to shutdown the well: pour concrete, blow the well.
This is unbelievable!!!

Simple. BP wants to cap the line but not shut down the well because of it's strength. The well is intensly powerful, we all see the video...thanks BP. Anyway, BP could have blown up the well days after but that would destroy the well. Our gov't needs to crack some skulls and blow that well up ASAP.
Thank you CNN and particularly AC360 for your continued good coverage of the oil spill. Keep on keepin on.
