Yup - and don't forget the big bucks that these brilliant engineers are getting as they try to find a solution.
All this, as people have lost their livelihood because of the money hungry oil company and their shortcuts, and ignoring the warning that a disaster was impending. They had days to shut the operation down before the explosion actually occurred, yet they chose not to. I wonder how they explain that to the families that lost loved ones in the explosion, the fishermen, restaurant owners, hotel and ocean resorts, whole towns losing tourism money because the beaches are closed, people in the cleanup crews getting deathly sick, and of course the damage to wildlife and the eco system, that will be affected for years and years and years to come........
