how does the camera lense not get all jacked up from the oil?

Is that thing some kinda hydraulic cutter?

Is that the big shear that is going to cut the other end of the riser?

Um-teen engineers from every major oil company, not to mention Coast Guard, state & fed officials working on this thing 24-7, but they just all f'ed up in your humble opinion, right?

That's what I'm thinking, Tiga... Gnarly, medieval looking thing, eh?

No that comment was more directed to the umpteen major oil company , Coast guard , State & Fed officials who f'ed up and allowed this to happen. You're saying they are all infalliable now?

Yes, of course, that is precisely what I'm saying.
And if you're so knowledgeable, why are you sitting on here instead of in a control room?

do they not have enough robots that they could have been cutting both pieces at the same time?

Cause I don't know jack shite about this. But I do know that the same company that f'ed this up with at least a half dozen major ovesights , and safety flaws is now trying to fix it. So if they make another big mistake I'm not gonna be surprised.

Posted on 5/31/10 at 9:22 pm to TexTiga

nevermind...guess not.

Well, as the saying goes, sometimes its better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you're a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

Wow , That was original. So you think I am a fool for saying that BP f'ed up here ?

Well you certainly are very good at logical conclusions. You must be a delight in person.

Yeah in fact I'm a pretty good guy. Did you even read my original post ? Come on by and lets talk about it over a beer or cocktail.

And to answer your question, I think you're a fool to criticize them for not doing something when you don't know know "jack" about it, in your own words; and I think you're foolish to assume that anyone that is reticent to criticize them must somehow think that the oil spill is a great thing or some such nonsense. But hey, its your opinion, such as it is.

they cant get it in the hole, whatever it is
