That kind of blast would cause one. It would also be the impetus for several underwater land-slides, each of which would cause it's own tsunami...<br /><br />Right now we are dealing with a leak that is less than 2 feet in diameter. There is NOTHING to say we won't end up with a new hole three or four hundred feet in diameter... I will say that this would definitely speed us to a final stoppage of the oil flow! It would ALL be released in a few hours!<br /><br />Yeah... they need to avoid playing God...Papa-sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10361626043756946970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-86863775819664006432010-07-03T21:49:35.328-07:002010-07-03T21:49:35.328-07:00An additional point that needs to be answered: if ...An additional point that needs to be answered: if the Nuclear Option is performed glassing over the well, yet there are leaks of cold ocean sea water making its way into the hot empty cavern, would there be a risk of an earthquake?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-35313118902860092522010-07-02T21:27:45.470-07:002010-07-02T21:27:45.470-07:00If the earth was shrunk to the size of an apple, t...If the earth was shrunk to the size of an apple, the earth's mantle would be thinner than the apple's skin.
