LOL Americans and the nuke. What is it about those things you guys love so much? lets see, pollute the water by something that will take years to fall to the sea bed or wash ashore. Granted not good for the environment but still its kinda natural. Or nuke it to the stone age and polute the waters with toxic element that can kill everything in the water including anyone eating the creatures from said water.
Hmmmmmm big choices there.
America: "let's nuke it"
the rest of the world (including the poor fishes) : "find a better solution"

I just think its kind of funny (in a gallows-humor way -- actually, nothing about this situation is truly "funny") that each solution involves more and more unpleasant substance. First there was the "mud" solution. Well, mud...ok, not a particularly pleasant thing, but at least natural. Then they were talking about the "garbage shoot." Garbage...erm, OK, if that's what it takes, but a bit nasty...now there is all this NUCLEAR talk...
Its almost like somehow a penance must be done by picking the most vile possible solution...some twisted form of wearing a hair shirt or something...

250,000 barrels of oil per year calculates to around 685 barrels of oil per day.
The latest “estimate”, which seems to be going up by the day, is around 40,000 barrels of oil per day GUSHING into the Gulf.
But you are saying ”don’t worry, it happens all the time, nothing is going to happen”.
I am glad you can still smile while a maniac on Angel Dust is holding a gun to your head

I would bet that this will lead
To international negotiations
About whether or not to nuke the area
I would also bet that this catastrophe will end
With a nuke or 2
