Do you think they would use some megaton nuke that would split the world apart?

Do you think all hammers are 50 pound sledgehammers?

Do you know the difference between megatons, kilotons, and fractional kiloton tactical nukes?

Do you think geologists don’t undertand what that sea floor is made of, how far the other wells are, and the effect radius of a specific fractional kiloton nuke detonated at X feet above the BOP, under 5,000 feet of water?

I swear, I think people beleive ALL nukes crack apart the world and create Godzilla.

I’m not saying do it halfcocked, tomorrow. I’m saying get the experts to studying the OPTION now.

Or, let’s wait for a billion barrels to leak out, and begin to study the OPTION a billion leaked barrels from now.

It should be studied, but keep in mind it could make a bad situation worse, irreparably worse.
Just like pumping in mud Wednesday could make a bad situation worse (fracturing the casing below the BOP). The only difference being that it is a recoverable situation when the relief well finally kills it.

This is closed season for lobster, they lay their eggs now. June is the month the snapper migrate to the reef to spawn. This could be devastating to marine life for many years. The Manatees are moving back up that way also. It could kill the only living coral reefs, destroy the diving tourism that South Florida and the Keys depend on. It’s just sickening.

But it’s true! I have seen the movies! Wait, are you trying to say Godzilla isn’t real?
