Last Inspector of BP Rig Was Still in Training
----------------------------------------------



In other news on the BP oil spill, CBS News reports the last government
inspection of the Deepwater Horizon rig before the explosion was done by
a Minerals Management Service employee who had only recently started his
drilling inspection training. The inspector, Eric Neal, recently told
investigators he had been in training for just four months when he was
sent on April 1 to inspect the massive rig by himself.
