On a political forum, a guy posted it there. He has more good vids but they are in French...
Here (http://bit.ly/9B49pK) is Obama looking for experts that kick ass (from autotune the news)  :P

Great video.

Hey, how come, you are not an amateur anymore?

The term "regular" comes from Peter's announcement that first all the divas of stock have been pre-added to the collection of Stockfresh, and that "later" the "regular" contributors (you know, the type that uploads pictures of their cats and brick walls) will be considered. (You must admit, there are some great cat photos (http://bit.ly/c1Mqov) online  ;) )

Twelves cams... does that mean six vessels doing interventions in the well?

That's what they're saying... it's Sunday night at 8 p.m. Pacific time (10pm at the Deepwater Horizon) and no work is being done right now... the best vid is from the Skandi ROV 1 & 2, that one seems to usually be right at the outpouring and shows them trying to get the cap stack on. Looks like at least 6 units are working, but maybe not round-the-clock!  Meanwhile thousands of gallons of oil gush into the saltwater every hour... but they can't violate Union rules and make those guys work more than 8 hours a day!  ::)
