Matt Simmons
Its starting to look as if Simmons gave up his position at Simmons & Co. to expose the situation in the Gulf and paid for it with his life. We are checking into this and we will keep you posted with the latest updates as the situation unfolds. Most news stations are reporting that he died of a heart attack, but at least two are reporting that he drowned. This does not look good. I am predicting that after today no one will ever talk about the reports that he drowned. Why would different news stations be reporting a different cause of death?

Here at the Intel Hub we have been somewhat critical of a few of Simmons theories, but recently his two well theory was proven to be accurate. Simmons has been very vocal in declaring the Gulf a dead zone.

This is a very sad day. The Intel Hub sends our thoughts and prayers to Mr. Simmons family and friends.

The famed energy banker was a prominent proponent of peak oil theory, and most recently got attention for his dire calls about the fate of the Gulf of Mexico.
