I believe it already has been capped and sealed off, just the oil clean up remains.

It's been substantially capped, but it's still leaking. Because of the cap, what's leaking is partially crystallized and not floating to the top, but staying on the bottom or in the water column. The permanent solution (a relief well) is still a couple weeks away because it was interrupted by Bonnie.

Yeah it looks like their letting Hayward go with a big fat paycheck and making the new CEO American.

Isn't the new guy responsible for a screw up in Russia though?

Really? I know idea, damn that sucks. That's about right though, hire somebody else almost as bad.

Can I ask something? Instead of pointing blame at people, shouldn't we try to clean up the mess? This oil spill was going on for what 88 days or more? You mean to tell me we can go to the moon, but we can't fix the leak?

I could blame Obama for not being prompt as a president to fix it. I could blame other people for other things. I could blame the engineers for faulty equipment. Can't we just fix these problems and get on with our lives. Heck, as long as BP helped clean up or payed for cleaning it, then considered the matter solved. One accident should not condemn someone to to be hated. Accidents happen, but irresponsibility is another.

In this case, everyone shares the blame on this one.

QFT and NO, I won't boycott BP.
