Just an fyi… I was looking at the live feed on bp’s site… it’s only one camera… and it’s showing nothing right now.

http://www.bp.com/liveassets/bp_internet/globalbp/globalbp_uk_english/homepage/STAGING/local_assets/bp_homepage/html/rov_stream.html

Then I found this site – it has multiple cameras (one for each ROV).

Interesting watching the Skandi ROV1 camera – that’s the one shooting out deep water dispersant. It’s cool to see multiple angles, too.

Reading articles this morning… Looks like the cut wasn’t as clean as they wanted – so it will be harder to get a good fit on the cap.

The problem is that if too much water gets in – ice crystals will form – which is what happened with the “top hat” attempt. They need as tight a seal as possible.

It looks like the saw blade that got stuck may have hit some of the “junk” from the junk shot… I would imagine trying to saw through golf balls and shredded tires would not be good for the blade… especially in those temps.

I hope they can fit the cap on tight enough… I really want the flow slowed… but it doesn’t look good.

I see his point on this one… When I lived in Philly I literally took two “long weekend” trips to London. 6 hour red eye – paid less than $300 for the ticket – spent 3 days/night there – flew back on the 4th day. I’d keep an eye on airfare sales and do low cost vacations. The other trip was for Thanksgiving weekend – met friends in Italy and spent 5 days touring, drinking, wine, etc.

Now that I’m on the west coast – the travel time alone is a killer – add at least 8 hours to the start airport to end airport travel time (because there’s always at least one layover somewhere: Chicago/Atlanta/east coast. I used to go to Europe at least once a year – now I go every 4-5 years.

That said – Hawaii and Japan are more convenient from the West coast.
