Is the BP Gusher Unstoppable?

http://motherjones.com/blue-marble/2010/06/worst-already-true-BP-well-now-unstoppable

..an oil driller said, the Beach Polluters are again cutting corners
by only drilling two relief wells. Success rates in that type
of rock formation are only around 60% per well.
Drilling just two means that statistically there is a one in six
chance of total failure and that they'll have to restart the
process two months from now, spending an additional three months
before the next shot at blocking the blown out well at its base.
