Anyone following DeepHorizon, not looking good. I bet Zeev could have solution.

Update: Here's a screen grab showing the new hole in the seabed. That's not the riser end from a new angle. This was grabbed while the ROV on the riser end was panning around. The BOP is over 600 feet away, so it is not that, either. UPDATE: The riser pipe used to be pretty clean all along it's top. Now, it is piled over with sediment. Something had happened to the dispersant mechanism, too. Pipes and connectors got knocked loose, liquid was pouring out of the machine, and we watched the ROV repair the leak. Seabed seems to have sunk rapidly. Riser end is now in a big crater.
UPDATE 1:20pm CDT: While watching, ANOTHER major "explosion" occured. ROV Cam now covered in Oil. It was pushed or moved back a few feet by the force of expulsion. Gush seems to have at least doubled in size and volume.
