No doubt there will be many more theories put about, but I think the one that will hold most weight will be that we probably really don't understand the consequences of opening up holes in the earths crust to find out what lies below.We probably should have guessed ,with thousands of years of knowledge of what happens when a volcano erupts.... can't recall anyone ever able to plug one of them or control the results. What has come out of this pretty quickly is a ban (or at least a halt) on further deep water exploration, and a pledge from Obama to get serious about the search for "cleaner" or more sustainable alternatives. Before I get accused of being a Prius driving eco hippy,I work in an oil refinery, and still want a healthy supply of octane to run a V-8 for a few more years yet.

Believe me the guys working on stopping this are doing everything humanly possible, unfortunately it's not just a case of turning of a valve....

i really dont understand how the industry does not have adequate disaster recovery plans in place to fix this type of problems efficiently and in a timely manner to eliminate the effect of the environment. surely the industry must be doing some sort of research on this trype of problem ? how the governments can allow the industry to continue to operate without some sort of guidelines being put in place has got me. really cant be that good for business either.
