in the end, the measured amount doesn't matter.
It's already more than any other spill in American history, and is on track to be one of the largest in world history anyway.
My question is- instead of BP putting a straw in it so they can suck some out to their waiting tanker on the surface-
why aren't they trying to PLUG it?
Think about that for a while.
the attempts so far aren't to cut it off, they are to capture the oil so BP can load it on a ship- to sell.
Greedy bastards are still thinking in terms of how much money they can make from it.
