Although this looks impressive and I am taking some prudent precautions
myself, this reminds me of the oil fires in Kuwait after the gulf war. Some
experts said that the fires would burn for years causing tremendous damage
to the ecology of the whole planet. It was solved in less than a year as I
recall. Seems that some always underestimate man kinds resolve to get a job
done. I don't want to get into a re-hash of this long a controversial
subject but I do think that there will be some problems.
