[quote:TutuWuwu:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzE5OTEwMzAzXzdBNjJDRjk5] [quote:dhlos 1110132] snip- Something else to add: The US did not have the equipment to deal with the leak at that depth. Supposedly, there are only 4 vehicles that can go that deep on the planet. BP has one, as does China - [b]forgot who the other two are[/b], but I suspect Russia is one. This is just one more thing that BP held over our heads when cutting their lopsided deal in the GoM mop-up operations. norway is one breakdown of relations with china over nobel? related? [/quote] We can only speculate at this point, dhlos. Certainly, the old timers in China probably have their robes in a twist over the loss of face with this incident. On the other hand, Chinese politics is in flux at the moment, with a run away economy and certain factions trying to drag that ancient society, kicking and screaming, into the 21st century. I think we have a hurry-up-and-wait situation in an urgent sequence of cascading events. Crazy making to be sure. China's standoffish attitude suggests to me that she's got an ace up her sleeve. In the context of this thread, it probably has to do with the Great Wall/Augie/space signals triangle. Just my take. edit: Thanks for filling in the blanks re: deep ocean equipment! [/quote]
