Learn to parse a message instead of cherry-picking for your personal buzz
words, would you. I made no claims that "that's all they've been doing is
hand-wringing". That's just your attempt at pejorative hyperbole.

I do not pretend to know more than BP engineers and have stated so previously.
Once again, that's just your attempt at pejorative hyperbole!!!

Since *NONE* *NOT* *ONE* of the ideas that the *PROFESSIONALS* at BP have
tossed at it then I'd say my and Wayne's wild-assed ideas have as good a chance
as the shit that they've done so far, Mr. Armchair Quarterback.

ENJOY!!!
