So the top Kill Method has failed - what next

[malaise]

looks like more oil is gushing than before but what do I know

[HughMoran]

1. They're gonna pump Cheney heads & Bush toast into the well to stop it up

Pure evil might just do it.

9. ROFL

I thought BP was just as evil and their presence sure isn't working.

2. This is what they will try next!

3. LMRP and then BOP on top of the BOP. The LMRP is already staged.

And I heard that they're sawing off the riser in preparation for it.

6. Shows what I know

I figured the next step was a fast car, no forwarding address and a pile of money waiting someplace without an extradition treaty.

12. Shite

Too many caps for me - I think I'll take two caps of some Red Stripe here and have a drink with hubby.

4. In the end RELIEF WELLS

and people better get "used to it."

It will get much worst... and this why we are at peak oil.

[LakeSamish706]

7. I bet they haven't even begun drilling the relief wells yet, huh? n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. Actually they have

I suggest the google. No will not do the work for you, but doing the search will reveal that indeed they have. It will even give you the date and number.

[LakeSamish706]

11. Yeah, I found it but I bet they are trying every way they can to do it on the cheap. I note

that Tony Hayward made mention of 100 million to drill these relief wells, so you can be sure that they are looking for the cheapest way forward.

[nadinbrzezinski]

13. Releif wells are NOT cheap

but historically THAT IS THE ONLY 100% solution. So they are stuck.

10. Reports Are Two have Been Begun, Sir

Though work on one of them it is said was halted recently, for no clear reason made public....

But at best these will not be actually helping till August or so, and that estimate may be quite optimistic....

"An optimist says the glass is half full; a pessimist says the glass is half empty; an engineer says the glass is twice the size it needs to be."

5. A few weeks ago I had tuned in on the live cam of the disaster

and the oil was gushing out of 1 area of a 2x2 pipe. I tuned in last week and it was gushing out of 2-3 different places. I haven't tuned in today. I said a couple of weeks ago I thought it was getting worse.

14. Every Katrina survivor just jumps in?

15. Where are the recs on this thread? People need to stop making this a political issue!

This is about the very health of our planet!

16. i wish someone knew.....it's beyond sad. it's tragic.

17. Wall street would still have been gushing

if big govmint hadn't stepped in. This is what happens from the free market is allowed to run wild without regulations.
