Bill,
I missed that but I saw this morning that they have finally attached a long tube to the main well and are now getting most of the oil into a tanker. But they still have a leak 1,000 yards from the mail well head where the blowout valve that was not working was supposed to have stopped this. From what I hear and read, I wonder just what on that rig was in good working order if anything. Also they are now spraying chemicals under water to keep the oil off the surface so it doesn't look so bad.
