I know nothing about any of this stuff. But assuming we do finally get the well cut off, could we not just light all of the surface oil on fire? Or are we actually trying to recapture some of this leaked oil for future use?

Sorry if this post insults everyone intelligence.

I think they have already done that, but it can't be done in choppy seas.

They are doing that too.

This seems like too much trouble.
