Nuke the Gulf -- The Final Option

Nuking the Oil Well | KVUE News local|Austin, TX. - This headline would make me laugh, but these folk are actually considering Nuking the Oil Well.

BP has gone through most of their ideas. The latest idea of sending drilling mud and concrete to stop the flow while they get a grip and DO SOMETHING ELSE. If that does not work, it will be a sad day for the Gulf Coast. Specifically as people are talking about the nuclear option.

Direct Quote: "They could still use a chemical explosive, but if they can't, if they can't do that, then the only way is to use some sort of nuclear explosive to close the well in," said Dr. Chenevert, Department of Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering at University of Texas.
