One thing I am wondering about...did the rig sink down on top of the wellhead? If so the devices to close the well might have been damaged.

I believe the rig settled 1500 feet from the bore hole.

Given the currents we would see there, that would not surprise me.
IF the reports about the lack of a remote shutoff are true, BP did tremendous damage to us.
