Deepwater Horizon behind us?

The 'Gulf Leak' may be behind us...but I can't believe it is so.
The sea floor of the Gulf must be very fragile and compromised
a 100 times at sites other than the Deepwater Horizon.
Terrible leaks in the Gulf have occurred elsewhere and will again.

It is only because this leak was so tragic and so prodigious that we
can not have ignored it.
Will we learn? What did we learn from the Valdez 20 years ago?
Andy Warhol said we would all have our 15 minutes of fame.
Even non-human entities can have their 15 minutes.
It's a 'News-cycle." Soon to be forgotten.
