    BP CEO came on tv about 30 minutes ago and explained that everything is going to plan so far. He said that any changes in what we see on the feed would not be indicative of success or failure. He said that it would take 24 hours before we know if it has worked.

    Shutdown and observed for awhile. Must have not liked what they observed. Back to pumping mud.

    Is it a mixture of mud and oil flowing out now? Or is it all mud?

    Hopefully it's just mud. They are pumping mud at 52 bpm. (2184 gpm)
