Ok, so you seriously don't think temporarily banning deepwater drilling is reasonable, given the circumstances?


It might be reasonable - we aren't experts so it's impossible to know if this incident is part of a wider risk. But this big thing about banning it till 2011 is political posturing. Suspend things, let the experts review and decide on the safety, then make a decision.


Let's say the experts do a 6 month review, starting today. That takes us to 11/30/10.

2011 is totally unreasonable?
