I doubt very seriously if that will happen. It's never been tried in the ocean.
I prefer the bottom kill from the relief wells,that is some tricky drilling they are doing, impressive.

Nuke goes off and fractures all the rock above it and opens the whole bottom of the gulf over the reservoir and it all, every drop comes up at once.

Great idea!

New reports out that instead of focusing efforts and resources on cleanup, everyone's friends over at BP are now trucking in sand and just covering up the oil already on the beaches.

We need to fry those bastards.

Thanks for that link Jay. Ya know...those BP guys are either totally braindead or they're just grasping at straws now. They might hide one layer but the low tide will just uncover it. The next tide will just bring more and be uncovered again. What idiots.

One of the beautiful islands we like to go to for the 4th not far of the coast of Mississippi!! Just plan F*ck Up.
Were are all the clean up personnel and check out the oil boom on the beach. 30 yr old technology!!:
The parish I live in has purchased thousands of feet of wall absorbent,it filters the water and also blocks the oil.Just like the absorbent rags we use in our bilges. Floating booms is like putting a rubber band on you penis to keep your girl friend from getting HIV.
Come on BP this ain't rocket science!!

The clean shot is from last year!!!
