This disaster is looking worse than Chernobyl in my opinion, at least that could be contained.

It looks very strange with the droplets on the lens, pipes and what looks like the reflection of light on something.

it amazes me that a big long underwater pipe doesnt have a couple of shut-off valves for problems like this.

It had one but its jammed open. 5000 feet of pressure might have caused new dynamics they didnt account for I guess

It's a Puddle compared to say teh Exxon spill or other Big spills, Media hype & summit for Ohbama to shout about, We need Deep oil
rigs if you want to maintain your life styles.

This oil spill will equal exxon in about a month of oil leaking and its coming up a month now I think.

They are siphoning some but not all, I read this weekend they'll employ further measures but obviously dont want to call success early

What??

You mean the chernobyl where up to 50,000 people died chernobyl yea?

Yea, some naturally occurring oil on the sea floor is sure gonna fark us over as bad as that.

Cosimo · 22 May 2010 at 16:37

It's back in action, just look at that. :eek:

Lets hope they get this stopped, as we need all the oil we can get.

Any idea how many barrels are wasted a day on this?

Hmm just seen there is more than 5000 barrels a day, thats over 150,000 a month!

Will someone think of the crude!

agree'd. i also think that BP has been very economical with the truth about exactly how much is leaking out and there will be massive environment damage.
just another step in man destroying itself

I certainly hope you don't own a car, and don't ever use oil, or you're helping kill us all, you fiend!
