1. I was thinking similar. It looks like day one or worse. It looks darker to me
which is supposed to not be very good, but I'm not an expert, but it sure looked better IMO yesterday when grayer.

Does anyone know what is happening with this current video stream?

2. That is the riser pipe some 600 feet from the BOP/Wellhead
It is spewing death. :(

3. Yeah, it sure is pretty ominous looking, sure looks like the Grim Reaper. I keep
thinking about the agony, pain and suffering the wildlife is enduring. Well said, "It is spewing death."

4. We can hope that as the spew rises into the light and gets lighter,
that it's mud and not oil. It looks much darker at the base.

I THINK mud is a good thing, I know oil is not.

9. They stopped pumping mud over 24 hours ago.
It has already spit out what they shot in. We are back to crude. :(

5. I'd make a joke connecting this to LOST and the Smoke Monster but there is nothing funny about it
just flat out sad

7. There's a reason it's called gallows humor.
I never did watch Lost, but smoke monster sounds like an apt description.

They are being cut out.
