I think there's more risk for a corporation to get involved with the "answer, have that fail than not getting involved at all. There's no silver bullet answer at this point. Much of this would have been avoided had the relief wells been in place along with the original pipeline to anticipate this disaster. At this point, it's a race against the clock and keeping our fingers crossed.
Agreed. I also think SS33 nailed it too. I was just thinking out loud - I'll stop now as that just causes my head to hurt and irratation to those around me.
