I'm with the earlier idea to nuke it - well maybe not nuke, but still one helleva bomb. I can't believe its gone this long and still hasn't been fixed. Stop messing around and try something else.

I don't think a 'real' solution will come until relief wells are completed. The primary focus now is limiting effects. And the 'innovators' showing their cheap oil-collecting products using motor oil as an example is pretty funny. The stuff in the gulf isn't motor oil, its pretty much Kerogen, right?

You ever wonder why the only people advocating such non-sense are Faux Noise journalist types, and people that are very ignorant of geology?

I can't believe that the government can build a missile that can accurately enter thru a building window when fired from a plane doesn't have some kind of explosive that will cause the well to collapse on itself. Or how companies can drop skyscrapers in the middle of a city with no damage to surrounding buildings and we can't stop the oil flow with an explosive.

yes it's amazing we can send rovers to mars and drill holes in martian rocks. we can ram orbiters into astroids, we can build 8 billion dollar LHC atom smashers. we can fly nancy pelosi around the globe in a single bound, but we can't even plug a darn hole.???? it makes me wonder how much longer we can survive as a species.!!>>> in geological terms not very long.
