Thad Allen: Containment Cap For Oil Spill Showing Promise

Yes.



And, we'll know more about that, the real source(s) of the breaches, when the Thomas Jefferson arrives there at the end of the week.



So then it becomes a question of the lesser of two ev!ls -- Letting the oil continue to gush, which means the death of the oceans (and humans on the planet, as 80% of our oxygen comes from the oceans) or exploding a nuclear device on the rupture to seal it.



The White House has responded already that it has no intention of doing the latter ("it's madness"). According to the Rolling Stone, US submarines were at the site shortly after the explosion surveying the damage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b307dNN1zBQ



It's hard to fathom that if Simmons and others are correct and there is another rupture, that the submarines wouldn't have discovered it and that Obama wouldn't have detonated a nuclear device to seal it by now.



But I can't dismiss Simmons' and others' expertise and opinions. Particularly in light of Obama's failure to clean house of Bush-Cheney-Oil-Industry plants, enforce regulations, perform stringent oversight, & his hands-off approach in the aftermath.



So we wait to hear from the Thomas Jefferson.
