Hilarious... I still miss John Candy.

In other news... (the stuff thay don't want you to pay attention to...)

 

Oil and gas is emerging from the sea floor way outside of the well casing. I don't even have to begin to tell you how bad this is so I won't.

 

Here is a video showing this occuring... it should send shivers up your spine... I've heard it keeps Tony hayward awake at night. My guess is that it is now a race between BP's relief wells and the forces of an extremely pissed mother nature. If mother nature wins expect the entire BOP/well head and casing string to blow out of the well. There is over 6,000,000 lbs of total oil pressure force applied to the BOP/well head attempting to do just that 24/7. The sea floor may actually be slightly rising from the high pressure 'oil blister' in the strata just 1,000 ft down causing increasing tension daily on the already compromised and leaking string.

I'm spooked.  I watched your video link of gas leaking from ocean floor. 

I hear rumors that a cavitation process is taking place around the leaking well, resulting in gas shifting and accumulating underground, raising the seafloor tens of feet across an area 15 miles in diameter.  If so, and should gas pocket grow and eventually blow out to the surface, could take down ships and innundate coastal areas, with massive loss of life. 

Anyone else hearing anything in relation to this?

Sort of.  Hillbuzz linked to this today:

Granted, it's speculation from a reader (and the forum has since updated the post to reflect this), but either the guy is a great BSer or he might just know what he's talking about.

Thanks Michele... I hadn't visited there in a while... nice find!

I know enough to be able to spot a fraud at least and this poster (doug?) knows what he is talking about.

Yup... no speculation there... that is exactly what the status is. You can take it to the bank... I'd bet my first degree (an underutilized Bachelors degree in Geology) since all the pieces to the puzzle fit.

Read it and weep... we are in a shitload of trouble and things are 99% certain to get much worse unless the local area of the reservoir depletes itself and oil volumes and pressures decrease.

Abiogenic oil formation is considered to be a theory with as much gravitas as extra-terrestrial alien proctological examinations of earthlings... just sayin'...

Zero- Due to anonymous peer review the pronunciamentos of mainstream science are always suspect. Probably the biggest reason for the glacial pace of progress in the theoretical sciences for the past century. Examples of old hogwash that should be long gone include: Einsteinian relativity, Big Bang quasi-religious horse hockey, black holes, dark matter etc.  and most likely the provenace of oil from the decomposition of primeval forests.

A fine comment your excellency... and I am pleased that your church officially forgave Galileo for his heretical views about the earth circling around the sun... even though it was a couple of hundred years late! :)

watching it at this link with the live testimony on one side of the screen and the live view of the oil spewing out of the well on the other side of the screen.

The Bush connection...classic.

I'm confused. I thought it was proven beyond doubt that GHWBush was actually the anttChrist. Now I don't know what to think.

What a BS scam , every single other CEO of oil companies said the well should have been done differently . IMO everyone involved in this should be behind bars for life-

Watching this is painful. I started counting the lies but soon stopped after the comments on dispersant use.

A colleague and ex-driller assures me that particular dispersant is a vile and dangerous substance and to expect consequences if it is being used in volume. I'll stick with his assessment.

No time.  Got to find out if Lamar and Kim are getting back together, and if Bruce Jenner's facelift is getting any better.

It's a choice between listening to a bunch of boneheaded, self-centered egomaniacs or boneheaded, self-absorbed wimmin with bodacious ta-tas.
