Worth Mentioning

THIS IS NOT MY POST FOR THE WEEK, however I felt it was worth mentioning on here.  I saw an ad in the WSJ that says that ExxonMobile, Chevron, Shell, and Conoco Phillips are teaming together to work on a containment plan that will trap oil in the Gulf of Mexico should anything like the recent spill ever happen again.  This was very intriguing to me. Also, I found it interesting that BP was not involved in this when all the other big players are. I am wondering if this was a strategic move on their part or if BP opted out, which I doubt in their state.
