It could take YEARS for that well to expire; it's an experimental one that had barely been tapped. This is truly one of the worst disasters in U.S. history. It won't stay a U.S. problem if it continues unabated for a long time though. Mexico and Latin America, Cuba and other island countries close to the Gulf of Mexico will eventually be affected as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the track record of lies and the mishandling of this mess thus far. I'm assuming that the probability of them speaking the truth on the 20% increase in flow to be between slim and none. I personally believe this spill will spell the end of Obama's Presidency. I also personally believe it is Judgment from the hand of God. dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there is anyone we can trust for the truth. As for the thing they are about to do, there may or may not be a higher flow of oil from the well, but it does seem a better chance of slowing it down. and they may well be able to put the oil into tankers and use it for domestic production. They are going to cut the well head above the blow out preventer so that they can get a better fit over the pipe and make for a smaller connection. The problem with the first try was that the dome they put over it was very large and that let the methane gas expand too much, too quickly and formed methane ice christals that were much lighter than the sea water at that depth and the thing would stop up and have a tendacy to float off the leak. Until they get the releaf wells drilled, there is going to be some oil leakage. If one studies the geology of the area, one will find that oil seeps out of natural formations on the bottom of the gulf, and has for a really long time, so the gulf can deal with some oil. It will take some time to deal with it, but it should help the job market in the area especially if BP really does pay for it all. We need to also remember that there are hundreds of chemical companies and refineries back up stream from those areas and have been polluting those same areas for years and years. We'll just have to see how it goes.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows the goverments inability to do anyhting against them as well, even when the oil well will be closed. They tell us how much money it is costing bp but not what the people living in the area are affected. Praying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shutting down all drilling except the kind that is far off the coast and in deep water has led to this tragedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oil does look kinda red like blood already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
