It is as I thought, the vat is too dangerous to drill. That is the rupture in the apparatus, not planet Earth.

The picture is of the rupture.  That is metal, collapsed and broken metal spewing crude and methane gas out of the hole.

The 'white stuff' is methane gas and the 'dark stuff' is the crude.  The Earth is burping large amounts of methane from this site and it will remain to be dangerous.  The white stuff is what caused the deaths of eleven people and the dark stuff is what is causing a coastal dead zone across the entire Gulf Coast of the USA.

There were reports yesterday of 3 inches of crude along the Alabama beaches.  People should not be in their homes with crude oil only yards away from their homes.

AND let's get this straight, it is NOT tar balls, its Crude Oil !

John is incorrect in assessing the fact we need gas and oil.  We don't.  His 'mind speak' is typical of the oppressed nature of the USA South.  The people of the South are focused to 'buy into' Wall Street priorities as it is 'portrayed' as the only venue for income for the citizen-peasant. 

John is correct in his assessement of the hopelessness to the circumstances in the Gulf, but, he is grossly "W"rong to his loyalty to the Petroleum Industry and the 'idea' that government can actually control this.  It can't !!!

The drill site in the Gulf has PROVEN to be too dangerous to continue to allow leases and our fisheries are now limited to the East and West Coasts.  The Gulf fisheries are lost for at least three generations, if not forever.

There is no reason for the USA to continue to drill for 3% of the oil supply REMAINING in Earth.

TORPEDOES !!!!!!!!  Close the hole !

This will be recorded in history as testiment of Wall Street's dominance over the soverignty and well being of the citizen in the USA.

Gulf oil spill news links: Alabama resident says it's worse than BP admits  (click title to entry - thank you)

Alabama resident John Wathen talks about his impressions of flying out over the Gulf of Mexico to view the oil spill caused by the demise of the Deepwater Horizon oil well.
As a volunteer pilot flies him out farther and farther from the coastline, Wathen becomes more and more impressed by the scope of the oil spill. "It's not a leak, it's a volcano spewing oil," Wathen says in the text posted with the video....




This is the propaganda from the Associated Press. 

I suppose the people of the USA can go back to bed with their security blankets now.

Where's the oil?
Much has evaporated, underwater

By CAIN BURDEAU (AP) – 1 hour ago
NEW ORLEANS — For a spill now nearly half the size of Exxon Valdez, it's hard to pin down where the oil from the Deepwater Horizon disaster has gone.
Although the government has been slow to say what's happened to it, a picture can be drawn from a publicly available model called the Automated Data Inquiry for Oil Spills.
The model shows that about 35 percent of a hypothetical 4.8 million gallon spill of light Louisiana crude oil released in conditions similar to those found in the Gulf now would evaporate.
It also shows that between 50 percent and 60 percent of the oil would remain in or on the water and the rest would be dispersed in the ocean.
Ed Overton, a Louisiana State University chemist analyzing the spill, says he thinks most of the oil is floating within 1 foot of the surface
