Message for President Obama: Possible solution to contain leaking oil for recovery. Simple and Fast
   
Doable, realistic, cheap, quick....

determine ocean current ad area of upwelling oil...this concept only concerns oil floating to surface.

Call out 60 to 80 ships to encircle the upwelling are with 1 mile to spare....consider a large circle(oval) 0ver/surrounding the upwelling oil made up of ships tied to each other bow to stern...the ships will be held in place by a fleeet of tugs

Wherever the current wind blows the floating oil is an attached flume held up with large floatinf pipes with 2 feet barriers made of rubber liner to form an elongated flume of sorts for pumps to recovery vessels.

the ships would hang a drape like liners 20 to 30 deep and connected to form an oil leak barrier...

nozzels should be tested for expiditious channeling at the mouth of the flume...not sure of the GPM but I thing the mouth should be 20 to 30 wide and 4 feet deep....even if flow speed is only 1 mile per hour...the gpm should be adequate for hugh recovery

there should be an open area of the encircling ships to allow egress and regress for well head operations..

its flexible to adjust for wind current

bottom of them liners should be anchor

liners can be of canvas or membranes used for pondliners of adequate grade......

Good luck

I bet 10 days or less on this one

The words "brain" and "trust" should never be used in describing the DUmp in anything. :hammer:

There are things that you read and no matter how hard you try you just can`t wrap a sane mind around them to grasp what it is trying to do or why it thinks it is workable and cheap.

This is one of those things.

One DUmmie was suggesting they build a temporary dam or barrier all around the leak and pump out the water. Then it'd be easy to fix.

This would work in SHALLOW water.

Until cinder blocks and chicken wire come up, the DUmbasses will keep on, keeping on.

If the dam could consist of the bodies of DUmb****s, well, then!  They might be onto something! :evillaugh:

Take all the DUmmies out to the site and dump them overboard. They obviously have all the solutions and could fix things in short order. Toss them each an anchor, too. They'll need it for ballast so the wind and current don't push them all out of position and stuff, you know?
