No, the right one, they have either 2 or 4 "jets" built into the LMRP cap that allows oil to escape. If at first they tried to suck up all the oil possible, they would also suck in seawater and ruin the collected oil. They will slowly begin closing the jets. Because of the crappy seal on the LMRP cap, there will never be a 100% seal.

They can separate water from oil, they're worried about the thing freezing up. And the vents somehow prevent that. (One of the guys explained to me how, but I studied economics not chemical engineering so I didnt' understand a word he said)

Dunno but I was watching ABC this morning when that well known rocket scientist Ariana Huffington proclaimed it was 1000% Bush/Cheney's fault.

Even the head of the Daily Kos would go that far. It amazes me that people can be so stupid. What amazes me more is there are even dumber people who will follow those stupid people.

Was she speaking through a translator?

wow obama is going to kick someones ass now.i am sure everyone at bp is losing sleep over that comment.i heard bp makes 92 million a day in business.so 2 billion in payouts should be no problem.i truly believe bp is going to do the right thing they i am sure are going to pay out to everyone who deserves it.i am also sure some scumbags not affected by the spill are going to scheme a way and try to scam bp on fake claims.this is why it is taking so long for bp to pay out .
i am not a huge supporter of huge companies usually but oil is something of a need not want .not like walmart putting mom and pop stores out of business.in the news today it is becoming apparent stores like walmart,sams,cosco are putting a hurting on malls now.pretty soon we will only have a dozen stores to shop at.

What BP needs to do is have someone who actually knows what is going on talk to the press, not these executives who are repeating what the engineers are telling them or what the executives think they are telling them.

No doubt LOL. It's pretty obvious the guys doing the talking don't understand what is going on no matter how well educated they are. I remember back to when I was hired to do a job these guys with advanced college degrees couldn't. That 3 months of trade school must have been more useful than I imagined

Great, we give military aid to Israel then give aid to the Palestinian terrorists that are the reason Israel needs our military aid.
