SocraticGadfly: BP oil gush headed to Florida!

BP oil gush headed to Florida!

Oops, looks like at least part of the Deepwater Horizon's creeping destruction is headed to the Florida Keys.

Meanwhile, BP claims its siphon tube has had limited success. Translation into plain English? It ain't worth jack. It did admit to the tube later becoming dislodged, which means it surely isn't working now.

Then there's the continuing BP "spin," like this:
“This is all part of reinventing technology,” said Tom Mueller, a BP spokesman, on Saturday. “It’s not what I’d call a problem — it’s what I’d call learning, reconfiguring, doing it again.”

Yep, no problems here, folks ... just a learning exercise in deep-sea engineering!
