Hey All,
Top Kill and apparently junk shots which I saw mentioned yesterday both are failures. Now they will apparently cut the riser (pipe) which will increase oil flowing into the gulf so they can attempt another capping. Hope no one is planning a vacation on the Gulf of Mexico this summer.
This isn't funny anymore.

Nope, never been funny, but I understand what your point is. It is now getting very serious. The next option is likely not to finish until sometime in August.
BP has, in the words of Chuck Yeager, "royally screwed the pooch!"
That's also why my view of this has taken a decided turn toward anger. These latest failures to stem the leak combined with the revelations that this accident was caused in major part by outright negligence has made me rather angry.
