Spence I fully concur. Just as a kick this morning over coffee I googled flow rates in pipes and came up with several calculators. One of which had a compensation for atmospheric pressure. I figured 100 atmospheres...and came up with a CONSERVATIVE 3000 gallons per minute out of a 21" pipe at a VERY low pressure rate... do the math..it's a CRAPLOAD more than 210,000 gallons a day.

I think this dispersant bs under water is going to have some disasterous side affects....that they're starting to just figure out with these 10 mile plumes 3000 feet underwater...

I see some serious dead zones out of this...hope not. At the minimum there's 100 endangered turtles washed up dead already, maybe more by now
