BTW, the quote from the engineer's letter from Pure Energy Systems has one crucial fact wrong: the sunken rig is *not* sitting on top of the wellhead. It landed quite a distance away and isn't an impediment to getting at the well. On the Pure Energy Systems site, those references have been crossed out. The date of the post with the letter is May 2. http://pesn.com/2010/05/02/9501643_Mother_of_all_gushers_could_kill_Earths_oceans/ http://tinyurl.com/39xyqur William Rivers Pitts's piece on truthout is dated May 4. Why did he leave those mistaken parts in? He also does not quote a commentary from Pure Energy Systems on the engineer's letter that's considerably less overwrought. Not that this isn't all horrendously dire, but it really doesn't help to exaggerate it.
