About the 20%: 80% is one of the highest success rates for any method of oil clean up. The cap didn't work, and they haven't devised a method to eliminate the spill as of yet.
Hmm, is that what it really looks like there?
About the Russian nuke thing, when, where, and how many times has it been done? That may be a good thing for them to look at, but if all of them were done very far away from any coastline, that may be why it wasn't done with the BP spill.
I'm no physicist or anything, but I get the feeling that if it's close enough, the coastal areas of Florida would get hit with nuclear fallout, which wouldn't be too good.
Thats always a good thing :rolleyes:Quote:

That is true. It could have been that the Russians executed it way out to sea to avoid a nuclear fallout, as well as a tsunami, or at a minimum, very very large waves.
and for how many times it's been done:
5 times, worked 4 times.
Well... why should I care? Imma Norwegian! I have NO knowledge of this happening anyways... (Btw, nuke it)
