The only logical assumption I can make from this statement is that you are on crack.
I see you are new to ATS, so let me make a suggestion to you. Why don't you get off the threads and review the T&C.

Why? Because humanity deserve extinction! I've been praying to GAIA and cursing humanity ever since this well blew that it will explode and wipe out as many humans as the humans have killed birds, and fishies, and dolphins, and cows, and pigs, and chickens, and rabbits and whatever else they have been victimizing for their party down good time here on Earth. I pray that mother nature goes on the defensive and smacks humanity in the ass hard for their horrible crimes against nature. Also, these dead animals washing up in the gulf is nothing compared to the atrocities being committed by the murderous meat eater heathens on Earth.

I can confirm that there is very little activity there and there is a media blackout! Ask yourselves WHY??

As far as informing everyone here just how the ocean breaks up the oil........Just take a look at this video that has not made the MSM in the US.

Thanks for your info though and we all hope your right on that front.....

All of these things lead to only one place, a fully wide open well bore directly to the oil deposit...after that, it goes into the realm of "the worst things you can think of" The well may come completely apart as the inner liners fail. There is still a very long drill string in the well, that could literally come flying out...as I said...all the worst things you can think of are a possibility, but the very least damaging outcome as bad as it is, is that we are stuck with a wide open gusher blowing out 150,000 barrels a day of raw oil or more.

Hey, all...just wanted to throw my 10 cents in here. Just for the record, I AM a geologist. That being said, I'm very, very certain that drilling into a batholith or pluton would almost certainly result in...nothing! The reason why nothing would happen is that all a batholith/pluton really is is a really big rock. At one time it was magma, but it cooled and turned into an igneous rock. If it was still molten it wouldn't be called a batholith or pluton, it would be called magma. So, I'm not quite sure what all the fuss over drilling into one is about other than a misunderstanding.
great reply,
ATSers never let the facts get in the way of a great fantasy pseudo science story.
Everyone will ignore YOUR REPLY as it kills the excitement of the thread based on speculation and fear mongering!

I've seen crazy claims about the oil spill but this is by far the most ridiculous.
First of all let me just shoot down the notion that there is a 'media blackout'. You have to be living under a rock to believe that there is a media blackout. Turn on the news every second of the day and there is new footage of the well and all the damage it has done to the environment.
Where do you get off on saying that they've 'hardly shown any footage of the actual water'. There's hundreds upon hundreds of hours of footage taken of the water and everything that has been damaged.
And now you believe they've tapped into an underground volcano? Where do you get your information? Until you back any of these claims up with some hard FACTS, it is not believable in the least.

Eruptions from Caribbean abyss throw up secrets of ocean life
British scientists hope that the discovery of the world’s deepest undersea volcanos is about to unlock the secrets of life at the bottom of the ocean.
More than three miles beneath the surface of the Caribbean, in a chasm cut off from the rest of the ocean for millions of years, are a cluster of ethereal spires teeming with life.
Formed by volcanically charged jets of superheated water shooting from the spires, hydrothermal vents rewrote the rules of biology when they were first seen three decades ago.
Now scientists aboard the Royal Research Ship James Cook have located the deepest volcanos yet found, 3 miles (5km) down.
