I wonder how much money EXXON earned on their 'bad product'   

Why Exxon used a bad product  *

& How you would feel, if harmed by 2-butoxyethanol *

The kind of dispersants used in 1989, 1990 in Prince Wm Sound

were very harmful.  

RCAC has recently taken a position against using such dispersants

 RCAC position

I hope that the US Coast Guard & EPA will take note.

Nor use any 2-butoxyethanol products in ballast water treatment, either.  

And more thoughts:

a link to an article on the US federal appeals court's decision.  http://au.biz.yahoo.com/061212/30/10g1e.html

 They should pay the full amount

RE:  Punitive damages

I hope their next appeal backfires on them

Any others like Evan Lange?

"Yes."

At least they could have told him what chemical he should avoid and what health issues they did find
____________

So, if the punitive damages will be paid ... is that a for sure now?

"No. Exxon is expected to appeal to the Supreme Court to argue that punitive damages should not apply in this case."
