Radio Zero: Nuke Baby Nuke! (The Exciting Sequel to Drill Baby Drill!)

Marla Singer's picture




 

C'mon you wimp.  The Russians nuke these things all the time.  Here is your big chance to show up Putin.  Run with it, baby.  No one will every call you a pussy again.  What is the use of being commander and chief if you can't set off a nuke now and again?  We'll just watch from a confortable distance.  To wit:

Solid pace peepz. I'm experiencing pressure waves...big ones on my eardrums!

What has become of you?
Does anybody else here
Feel the way I do?

your post reminds me of being stoned.  the best years of my life were spent either smoking pot, looking for pot, or trying to get my gawd damned blacklight to work.  if only that trans-am had been a time machine . . . i woulda never left '82 in my rearview.

i don't remember vera lynn. but i do remember the question coming out of my speakers.  thanks for the reminder.

Hi ZH community,

Long time lurker and fan, 1st post ends up being a request.  I've saw mention on the web that the big ships have issues travelling thru oil slicks due to oil messing up the engine cooling properties of the water. I've also been reading about the fumes and how people are getting sick. 

My question. Does anybody have an idea of the impacts if the ports and refineries on the gulf have to start shutting down?  I'm thinking very bad, but would like specifics.  Maybe a guest post by someone?

Not really for the nuke idea, only because I don't think it will work, hoping for the relief well though think they should be drilling at least 10 of them for a shot at sucess.

"The Russians nuke these things all the time. "

Yeah... no problemo. I recall that when the first fusion bomb was detonated in the pacific the "experts" underestimated the yield quite a bit even though they had experience with fission bombs. The crew on the forward observation ship got their eyebrows singed and their lifetimes shortened, it's all good.

Forget the labels and images for a moment. I suspect most of us are conflicted over this because there appears to be so much oil in these offshore locations.
My own biases lead me to believe that we should go through the deep sea drilling learning curve but we should do so deliberately. That is, with priority on minimum damage rather than oil output and with long term national commitment rather than depending on private companies.

Agree with this. Just the mechanics of building a casing that would withstand the several tones PSI pressure, drilling a hole big enough, delivering the bomb to the right depth and setting it off seem to preclude the idea.

That does not even take into account the unknown/unforeseen/unforeseeable consequences of a bomb in the GOM.

Nuking it will be the LAST option - other than letting the Gulf of Mexico turn into the worlds largest tar pit.  It is being reported elsewhere in the blogosphere that 7 miles away from the well, a huge plum of oil is leaking out of the sea floor.  Capping the well won't help with this.

 

The relief-well MAY be able to plug it, but I suspect the first one is being drilled to attempt to plug it, the second will be to place a low-yield bomb near the well to attempt to squeeze the pipe shut.

 

If a low-yield device goes off at 18.000 feet.  It will show up on seismometers, but that's it.  Remember we used to detonate BIG bombs underground all the time.

So BP stands for Bomb-Plutonium?

 

If this formation is soft, as has been reported, and there may be fault lines, and also salt formations, blowing a hole in it will certainly make this present problem look small. A rather dark question now is --- just how dangerous are nuclear electric power plants, in relation to destroying the fisheries. And we thought we had problems with a couple of wars and a depression, zounds.

This is crunch time for Obama. Walking the beach, seeing the damage first hand does not cut it. The 10 year present value of this catastrophe considering all areas of its damage has got to be in the $1T area. Fire Napolitano. The woman is off point far too often.

Any serious consideration of using a nuclear weapon by this administration would be the end of this administration. Sure, the Soviets had been careless in the past - and destroyed hundreds and hundreds of miles of coastline on their Arctic/Northern border - but I very much doubt that Putin is calling Obama and recommending he use a process that was last used in the 1960s by the Soviets. If you have to seriously consider the differences between nuking an oil well 100 miles from New Orleans and nuking a well 1500 miles from any city, then stop reading now. I am sure Palin would go this path, almost immediately.

Thoughts... a) any acceptance of a plan that extends into August will translate to the realization that this administration is inept and this will impact the markets as will hits to the economies in any country or state bordering the Gulf coast far more than it has to date, b) they had better start sucking oil/salt water from within feet of the oil gusher, perhaps using long connected tubes and a rotating flotilla of supertankers - each holding 80 million gallons, c) seize the assets of BP, they are gone, done, get the f___ out of the way, you are f_____ing done, d) when it rains it pours - I can't recall a time when so much shit was hitting the fan at the same time....even the Hurricane forecast is insane this year.
