Last resort?

The nuclear option is upon us, or at least US. Bombing a leak like the one below the Deepwater Horizon in the Gulf might be a necessity. The Russians did it five times in similar scenarios. Four times the action worked, all with "small" nuclear bombs.

Spooky times, indeed, when a nuke is a solution to repair a problem caused by humans. Mother Nature cannot possibly have a good response. But what must be done will be done.

For now, British Petroleum is going to try another method, but really, there's proabably no way to stop this gusher other than the nuke. Isn't it odd and fascinating that we are getting toxic by air (Iceland volcano that I cannot pronounce or spell) and sea (man-made disaster)? The images are somewhat similar, really.
