BWAHAHAHA...the idea may be fine, and I am not commenting on it, but I am laughing at the idea that BP, with annual profits in the $Billions, is now going to just try and shove some old junk in the well to plug it up. They could have gotten some drunk redneck to come up with this plan.

I concur... told Mrs. Ntrcptr this is something her brother and I could have guessed to do 2 weeks ago.

Stephen Colbert's comment on that idea was priceless:
"Oh. So no one knows what the fu#@ they are doing."

I liked the idea of used kotex, but seen I've seen the hay demo, I think we should try to use it

This must have been the worst thing they could have said/done from a PR standpoint. They should have at least used more technical names for them. Everyone is hammering them hard for it now.

I have a feeling something low tech like this will work.

Didn't NASA use duct tape, a shoe box, a ziploc bag, and an air cartrige to get the astronauts of Apollo back to earth a while back?

This sounds more like a job for MacGyvar everyday.

There's a difference between that being all they had in SPACE vs what can be manufactured here on Earth.

So when are they going to quit screwing around and give this a try. Seems like they have been talking about trying this for a few weeks. Seems like BP is just taking their sweet time.
