    It's coming out under pressure from 2 different spots a mile under the surface. They can't control the source of the oil and you can't just plug a cork into the openings.

    Indeed.

    Mother Nature is far more powerful than the minds of mere humans.

    This has quickly fallen out of the national spotlight.

    you're just now figuring this out? Their headlines have at max a 72 hour shelf life. pretty sad actually (i know you know this - just pointing it out for a few others here).

    im really getting ticked off about this. i know i dont really know what is going on, but it seems like they are trying something, then if it doesnt work, come up with a new idea and try it. bs. with all the resources available, they should have 20 different ideas designed and ready to go. none of this waiting 5 days for a funnel and 5 days for a box then 3 days for a smaller box.
