I don’t know who “TED” is (I never checked) but I saw this site and the pictures speak so loudly about the damage to our Gulf and our shoreline.   I only have my measly pictures I took while at Orange Beach the other day that hardly attest to the large-scale damage done by the oil spill.  I don’t have access to a plane and a camera to take pictures from above so this site and its pictures are what I can offer you.  Please check it out with hanky in hand:  http://tedxoilspill.com/2010/06/25/what-have-they-done-to-the-earth-what-have-they-done-to-our-fair-sister/
