Just a few minutes ago the live underwater BP camera feed was cut at approximately 18:23 and they began sending out a replay from four hours ago, 14:45 or so.

Just prior to the cut of the live video feed, an enormous explosion of more crud and gases begins to erupt, at one point completely obfuscating the cameras view.

It is obvious the BP folks cut the feed so the public will not see this latest acceleration of the underwater catastrophe.

This is the last of the live feed prior to it being cut moments ago. Watch as at 17:56 in the video the plume starts turning light colored tan/red and begins to enlarge dramatically, then unleash in a fullout explosion that engulfs the camera.

1. The live feed is cut at 18:23? That's when the last video ends....??

Which of the three videos does the live feed cut in, and go back to the replay.

I got to see a lot of the eruption.

edit: the last video ends at 18:23 (didn't mean to pose that as a question). I don't see any cut happening...

5. I didn't either but I posted it because of the way the oil increased.

2. Someone from BP said they might be able to plug it up by August.
I must have heard this on Thom Hartmann or Ed Schultz. Can you just imagine 3 more months of this???

I thought things were totally out of control when we had the Bush administration. Obama is supposed to
visit the area this Friday?? Where is he today? Where has he been?

Trying to find petition sites, writing and calling senators without response, I am now forced to hold
a sign and stand in person to call attention to this.

By the way I think BP should be taken down, all proceeds going to clean up and people thrown in jail.

4. While, I believe I could be certified as a larger fan of the Democratic Platform, than that poseur
of a president, I cannot blame the non-existense of adequate deep-sea technology for fixing this quickly on him. This is lack of Congressional oversight, and Bush administration, illustrated graphically. Obama lucks out, even though he has been appointing the same folks, and promoting the same policies THIS predictable result, began before Obama's watch. I have no confidence that the President will do what is necessary to ensure this doesn't happen again.

All I know for sure is that whatever the weak-assed legislative response is, it will be called Historic Deep Sea Drilling Reform, the minority party and lobbyists will write over half of it, and Oil companies will benefit.
