Are there specific things you know of that BP should be doing? Can anyone point to a specific way that they *should* be handing this? Other than, you know, *faster*?

When 'experts' in oil start spilling it into the Gulf, and then can't fix it a month, I'm pretty self-assured saying the ain't doing a good enough job - ty97 May 26, 10:52 1
