Given the way things have gone, this is pretty much a guarantee it won’t be in 12 to 24 hours. Whether sooner or later is the big guess.

Enterprise feeds are back up, all the wires have been pulled away.
and all the rovs look to be in a holding pattern.
Maybe they were just ordered to wait until the ONE gets down there tomorrow - so he can helicopter out to the ship and command “CAP THE DAMN HOLE!”
I don’t know if anyone has asked the obvious question, but ...
what happened to top hats 1, 2, and 3?

Here's another way to think of just how much oil has gushed out since April 20: At worst, it's enough to fill 102 school gymnasiums to the ceiling with oil.
That's nothing compared to the vast expanse of the Gulf of Mexico, where there are 643 quadrillion gallons. Even under the worst case scenario, the Gulf has five billion drops of water for every drop of oil. And the mighty Mississippi River pours 3.3 million gallons of new water into Gulf every second.
Under the rosiest scenario, little more than four gyms would be filled. That's how the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration visualizes oil spill volumes on one of its websites.
When they start scrolling "OBAMA in 2012" you'll know it's a success.
The solution to pollution is dilution.
