I like how your so scientific and all dismissing it out of hand in a knee jerk fashion. All options must be on the table. This is proven technology. See: A first test in the fall of 1966 proved successful in sealing up a well in southern Uzbekistan, and so the Russians used nukes four more times for capping runaway wells.

“The second ‘success’ gave Soviet scientists great confidence in the use of this new technique for rapidly and effectively controlling ran away gas and oil wells,” according to a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) report on the Soviet Union’s peaceful uses of nuclear explosions.

A last attempt took place in 1981, but failed perhaps because of poor positioning, according to a U.S. Department of Energy report.” Thank you for proving my point about the anti-nuclear hysteria the left has spread to Americans. I suppose your against food irradiation?

You lost any claim to science whatsoever when you started portraying this comparatively small well leak as a catastrophic disaster meriting apocalyptic solutions.

Are you an unemloyed anthropomorphic global warmist looking for a new gig?

Did you sell Y2K survival kits?
