Thinking about investing in BP stocks

The drop in BP's stock price due to the gulf spill seems like an opportunity that can be capitalized on for the long term. I'm thinking about buying several shares and sitting on it for the long term. Let's face it, oil is a necessary commodity. I'm sure BP will rebound and the its stock will climb.
