Beyond annoyed at BP

melcharI'm really ticked off. The 'efforts' they are making is a BP smokescreen. They NEED to seal off the volcano of oil. What BP is doing are experiments to protect their gusher for later exploitation.
So BP tries to put a big cap on the gusher with a pipe to suck out the oil. Fail. Now they are going to try a smaller, heated cap to suck out the oil. Wanna bet that's going to fail as well? If THAT doesn't work they have said they'll cram stuff down the hole in an effort to clog it [and likely get propelled cannon-like shot instead]. THEN they plan to drill a 2nd hole to 'ease the pressure'.
Are ANY of these an attempt to SEAL off the area? Of course not! Then the remorseless bast@rds wouldn't be able to get at the oil. As a result it will be months of this pissing around until they are ordered to SEAL the darned thing off and likely 20 years of the Carribean being a dying sea.
