There are more spots with leaks as well, the rov on the sea bed only shows one leak. Either way if they get this tight cap seal on, the damage has been done and the region will never be the same. And yet these people are still looking for more spots to throw up there off shore drills. Like seriously wake up.

There was nothing simple about anything with this issue. To claim that means you completely misunderstand it.

Thanks to the Waterworld man, the oil will be cleaned up ..
