US bans offshore drilling as Deepwater Horizon slick hits land - Times Online
I strongly support off-shore drilling, but I think this is a good idea. If we are going to do it, we should do it as safely as possible.
Since our limited fate depends on oil for dozens of different products, including gas, we really have no choice, but we should make preparations for the next pipe break.
Red Adaire knew how to cap pipe breaks by threading a new valve on the stump, so why can't we do the same thing under water?
