    But Ellen, it wasn't a talk in the White House Conference room, where there is a flag. It was at the Griswold's.

    I don't know much about the leaks that have been on the live feed for the past two days but things look drastically different for the worst. It's been focused at a constant angle for most of the time. To where I have pretty much memorized the layout of what I am seeing along with the leak locations. Well, all hell seems to have broken loose because there is a much larger leak in the foreground now. And I can still see features in the background that indicate camera position has not changed.

    Please take above comments with a grain of salt but... I fear it made it worse. :( :( :(

    Anyone Remember Mexico’s Ixtoc I Spill?

    The gulf seemed to recover from this one, let's hope it can do it again. :(

    I decided to test out the top kill procedure on a smaller scale today at work. I coulda swore there was gonna be enough mud but that industrial toilet really surprised me. I'll have to eat some corn tonight and try out the junk shot tomorrow.

    You may have missed by a day but maybe not. Not official yet. AND things do change often.
