A little pairing juxtaposition from what the Resident says and what the Scientists are saying. Truth or dare. You decide which you are going to believe.
Resident Obama- "Come on down"
"The last point I’m going to make -- and this is something that’s been repeatedly emphasized here in Mississippi, but it’s true in Florida, it’s true in Alabama and it’s true in portions of Louisiana -- there’s still a lot of opportunity for visitors to come down here, a lot of beaches that are not yet affected or will not be affected,” the president said at a Coast Guard station in Gulfport, Mississippi. "And we just want to make sure that people who have travel plans down to the Gulf area remain mindful of that,” Obama said. “Because if people want to know what can they do to help folks down here, one of the best ways to help is to come down here and enjoy the outstanding hospitality.”

The day after that, May 4, it dropped down to 46 ppb, before rising on May 5 to 1,010 ppb. ... “They’re there at a little over the levels that you would expect to start getting those health impacts,” Subra said. “So, that is of concern, that the people understand what is there and understand if they start getting the health impacts, they should take precautions to move out of the area.”

me too. There are reports now that many workers are coming down with a mysterious disease. And other reports from locals that say some of their more delicate plants, like blackberry, are withering and browning prematurely. I SOOOOO feel for the people who live under all that incoming: oil, gas, chemicals...it is a crying shame. Emphasis on crying.
