BP has a place on their web page where you can send in suggestions. Maybe you should suggest that.

Doing all this work by remote control under a mile of water has to be incredibly difficult, and yes it's a hell of a mess. A month ago I would have said they'd get it shut off somehow, but now I suspect that all the attempts to stop it are just because they want to look busy doing something. It may very well have to keep leaking until the reservoir pressure drops. In the old days there were quite a few uncontrolled gushers on land that spewed oil for nearly a year until the pressure dropped on its own.

I do wish the feds would get off their butts and let them build sand berms to keep the oil out of the marshes. BP is willing to pay the cost of building them, but it's like the feds want to deliberately make the environmental damage as bad as possible.
