I must be tripping.
About 30 minutes ago there was a post on the front page that said they had successfully stopped the flow of oil from the Deep-water Horizon. Now, they are gone. I wrote a very angry post regarding the cleanup and before it was up 10 minutes - it appears what I read is now gone.

Am I the only one that caught that?
Damn, I need to lay off the God's flowers.

1. There's a post by you that you edited, and the post about stopping the leak
is still there (if we're thinking about the same one). So, yeah, I'd say you're tripping - hope that helps... :)

4. Last I read was that there appears to be only drilling mud coming out now.
However, that indicates that they have not as yet defeated the pressure coming from the formation.

If and when the mud stops coming out, they will pour tons of concrete into the bore to try to permanently stop it up.

5. Thanks. I actually know what you're talking about since I watched about a zillion
explanations and animations of it today. :hi:

3. The threads were consolidated into a thread on GD
Edited on Thu May-27-10 12:21 AM by grantcart

That happens often with threads in LBN that tend to be more discussion that actual news.


Here is the thread that was moved

7. HUGE: BP May Have Stopped The Leak
That's it.
That is what provoked my reaction.
Must have been the HUGH!

Shit, I fall for that every time.

8. Congratulations! Considering that there's only 5 days left in May,
you are almost certainly tripping if you think you're getting married this month... :)

10. A person is incomplete until they've married their soul mate.
Then they're finished.

I've had friends who've been married for ten years tell me that it only seems like ten minutes....under water.

I'm just planting little seeds here.
