    BP is owned by a British company.

    You have three guesses. The first two don't count.

    OK no more politics then. Anyways, as I was saying, the owners of the firm that directed it should have considered other methods, because currently, every bit of oil possible in that vein is trying to get through that rift in the ocean floor. It's not a small rift either.

    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.

    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.

    It was done one time. Somewhere west from the US. This is the second time.

    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.
