Can't they just blow up the oil well?
I know this is simplistic. Why can't they just attach explosives and blow it up to pieces?

An explosion would just make it even worse, DUmbshit.

5. So, if the gas pipe going into your stove had a leak...
you'd do what, tape a firecracker to it?

Considering the stupidity so prevailent in your little hive, I would not be surprised if someone was foolish enough to try it.

Lessee, 5,000 ft....3 atmospheres every 100 ft, 30 every 1,000 times 5 is 150 atmospheres times 33 PSI per atmosphere and we have 4950 psi, say 5,000 PSI to round it....and the oil's just blowing the water assice as if it were on the surface......so of course we should blow off all the overburden and expose the oil deposit open to the sea over a couple hundred sq acres. Yes, THAT'S a good idea!
How is it possible that any of these people are gainfully employed?
-
You're encountered with an undesirable hole in something, anything. The fix is to blow it up? Is this what they do to their own plumbing?
I went over to the Dump to look for something entertaining, but there's thread after thread about the BP oil. Why do they do this? Can't they just tack an oil comment onto another thread?
p.s. I love it when Adbot throws up an ad for Looney Tunes. God bless 'im. :-)

I believe 1 atmosphere is 14.7 psi, not 33....
Actually, it's 14.6959 psi, at sea level....

I think the OP Dummie has watched "Hellfighters" one too many times but never paid attention. One doesn't BLOW UP an oil well to stop a leak. They blow it up to put out the fire. (The working theory is that the explosion uses up all of the surrounding oxygen, eliminating one side of the fire triangle and hence, extinguishes the fire.) The oil STILL flows, as demonstrated in the movie.

You can't fix dumb like that. Must be an IQ test to vote....must be.

Oh, Hell No!! Who knows what effect the radiation would have !?! - Id much rather have oil washing ashore than these guys...

No Karin and part of the lunacy and neediness that is DU.
They can`t just comment but have to make a self centered thread so that ALL can see what they have to say or think on an issue.

Quite right, 14.5 lbs every 33 ft, or 2175 psi.. Still the oil gushed out and a nuclear tactical weapon rthere would act something like a shape charge and cut deep into the botton, and would kill EVERYTHING in the water for miles and as likely as not open the entire oil depoisit to the seawater.

No, it doesn't make you appear stupid, it just confirms what everyone outside of DU already knows.

how could i ever get through a day without dummy logic to amuse me?
have a gaping hole in the ocean floor that is spewing oil? BLOW IT UP! that will stop the leak.
a porous border that allows millions to cross over illegally? AMNESTY! that will stop those pouring over the border.
an illegal drug problem? LEGALIZATION! well, yeah, that would do it.
can't pay your bills? DON'T! see how this works?
i have been hanging out on du for so long i can prescribe a solution for any problem you can describe. and the solution is always simple, and beyond any human logic.
patient: "doctor, it hurts when i do this."
dummy: "then don't do that!"
ah to be a dummy. life is so simple. except when their government check is late. THAT is truly a catastrophe!

I can't help laughing, I'm sorry. What a complete and utter DOLT!! Firecracker to gas leak in stove had be in tears too.
...My gut hurts.

It is amazing the DUmmies even know how to walk, eat and breathe much less know how to post on the internet. :rotf:

And they call ME a redneck.... :mental:
Show a redneck how to make a living setting fires or blowing $hit up, and he'd be ALL over that. DUmmie Tony is letting his true colors show....

BIg ****in' SUprise, DUmbass!!!!!!!!!111111111eleven!!! If the FOo SHits............
and blow it up to pieces
.......and YOu BLow a LIquid To PIeces How?............Your mother dropped you on your head, down a full flight of stairs, onto the concrete sidewalk, into the street, where the taxi ran over your head, didn't she?

liquid AND millions of cubic feet of natural gas. Yeah, blow it up......

Couldn't an underwater nuke cause, I dunno, the pocket the gas/oil is in to collapse spreading radioactive oil all over the Gulf and possibly even causing a tidal wave?

Whatever it would cause as a side effect, you can bet your fourth point of contact that the DUmp hasn't thought it through.

indeed. The hydralic shock wave alone would kill sealife for miles and miles. Damaging nearby wells too.

Then watch what happens when all that radiated material gets into the Gulf Current. I'm tempted to burn my mole next time I see one of these posts.

Screw that! Why waste a mole on this much stooooooooooooooopid?

This is typical DUmmy think...only the outcome I want will be the one that happens.

The fallout would be carried around by the currents, ingested by wildlife and work their way up the food chain to us.

I wouldn't be too concerned with the underwater fallout. Think about how many nukes were tested during WWII and after. The ocean is a big place. We'd still just be trading one type of pollution for another, oil for radioactivity.

The Gulf is a bit smaller and closer than the South Pacific though
