EH>> Not from idiots who think it can be frozen by pumping liquid
 EH>> nitrogen into it.

 ml> bullshit, ed... they are taking suggestions from all points... whether
 ml> or not they consider or use them is another matter altogether...

 RC> I would think that the aeration and agitation would not a stable

aeration? you mean the gaseous gasses that are coming out? how's that gonna
be any different than what they're trying to do pumping "heavy
mud" down the hole? the gaseous gasses are still going to be there and
