At last BP, under the watchful eye of Coast Guard, is making a realistic attempt to stop the flow of Oil some 80-plus days after it began. Now we get to find out if it works.

We are concerned about a recent drift towards vitriol in the RSN Reader comments section. There is a fine line between moderation and censorship. No one likes a harsh or confrontational forum atmosphere. At the same time everyone wants to be able to express themselves freely. We'll start by encouraging good judgment. If that doesn't work we'll have to ramp up the moderation.

General guidelines: Avoid personal attacks on other forum members; Avoid remarks that are ethnically derogatory; Do not advocate violence, or any illegal activity.

Remember that making the world better begins with responsible action.

OK, this has become the oil industry laboratory from hell. We hope with all our hearts and souls that this latest approach to cap the well works and doesn't blow. But, clearly, the industry has ventured into an area where it has no expertise or experience. Spinmeister bastards who profit will position this as a "valuable learning experience." They have no idea.
