You are right Jack--the real hazard to humans is the long term exposure thru our food chain. The PAHs in oil are carcinogens and they will bioconcentrate in all of our seafood--these PAHs will be spread all over the Gulf and even into the Atlantic before this is over. They will be there for decades because they do not degrade.
