Oooohh.  Just missed my targets this month.

Off day.  On another note, if we happened to 'lose' the oceans, human civilization would die.  Oceans are the primary producer of oxygen....and since we are cutting down everything that stands on land...the oceans are all that is left to produce oxygen, something that we all understand that we need.  So why isn't the cleanup/containment treated for the oil spill treated more aggressively...like the 2 wars we are dumping $$$ into?  Not only is oil coming out by the millions of gallons but also possibly toxic, untested dispersant INTO THE ONLY RESOURCE THAT ENABLES US TO LIVE!  The outcome of our current two wars will pale to any outcome of limiting the ocean of the animals (algea/planktons) that produce life-sustaining O2.

My wife has noted that there is no environmental outcry from various groups begin reported on the major networks...and AC360 would definitely have them on if so.  How come?  Do we really take the oceans for granted?
 

I wonder if they could lower some explosives far down into the well below the seabed and just blow it so it would collapse on itself?  As long as it's deep enough that the surface floor doesn't collapse and the explosive is only powerful enough to rubble the immediate area of the pipe, it would seal itself and they could just poor concrete in the remaining top part of the well to fully plug it.  Then again, I have no degree in explosives or geological stuff.  And maybe they just can't stick something back deep down in the well if stuff (oil) is flowing out.

Another off day.
