I took a break from work, and watched the live feed for a minute. I either just saw the whole thing entirely blow out, or BP is implementing LMRP or hot tap right now.
Specifically, I saw a HUGE rain of white clumps and particles which are either foam-like objects used in a junk shot or methane hydrates.
Then all of the water within the camera view got very, very dark. When I looked more closely, I could make out the outline of massive jet-black plumes of oil rising from below the camera.
At least as of right now (6:00 pm Pacific Standard Time), if you look at the live video feed below, you can see what I mean.
This is either very, very bad, or BP has abandoned the top kill/junk shots altogether and is in the middle of surgery where it has already cut off sections of the BOP and/or riser, and is trying to cap it off with a sealing grommet.

What happened to the giant squid?
No, no no... That is the sewer cam from the west wing.
They were told NOT to use any more toxic “dispersant” Could that be what we are seeing and the lights make it look a lot lighter?
What the hell is LMRP? TFGM, TQOI, HIHI... GTOP!
They were going to resume.
I heard some clips of doofus (the spokesguy, his name escapes me just now) saying “we” “we” “we” in the presser WRT the oil situation.
Looks like Zero’s crowd is totally on board, no matter what a CF this thing has been and probably will continue to be.
Can’t be a blow out...Obama tole ‘em to “plug the damn hole”...
Nobody else seems to know what LMRP is either and it’s really annoying when people throw around acronyms like they expect everyone else to know what they mean just cause the guy using the acronym knows what it means.
The squid vid was from 2008.
Dunno. That thing was awesome. They must’ve agitated it until it went on its way.
There was a huge blowout this morning around 9. They are lying and so is the MSM.
I still don’t know what LMRP is LoL
And I built oil well caps in the late 70’s
Yes. How did I not remember that?
Guess he’s just not too high on my relevance scale.

Tonight BP COO Doug Suttles explained that the companys engineers will pump mud for a period of time, then analyze results. Theyll also inject —junk shot — rubber, metal and other debris along with the mud in an attempt to further slow down the flow of oil into the Gulf. Starting, stopping and starting again, Suttles says, is nothing unusual. They hope to eventually cap the mud and junk with cement.
So hows it going? BP will only say that the process continues and that it will continue over the next 24-48 hours. The company made similar statements in recent days. Suttles explains this by saying the process is slow goingthey dont want to rush itand that they will continue top kill as long as they think it has a possibility of working.

Bush’s Fault!!!
He is the perfect spokesman for a perfect disaster of an Administration.
