Stop the Oil Gusher

This oil gusher is a real problem on the way to a major catastrophe. It has to be stopped.
I was watching late night TV yesterday and saw an infomercial for a magic putty that instantly stops all leaks. For $ 9.99 you get 5 rolls of putty and a tomato slicer and an onion chopper. So we have BP order 2 million of them which would give them 10 million rolls of putty. They work the putty into a ball to activate it and then inject it into the what was supposed to be the blow off preventer and there is a good chance the leak will stop immediately. That is what the infomercial says it will do. Crisis over. The 2 million tomato slicers and onion choppers can then go to the people who have lost their jobs due to the oil spill and they can put them on Ebay to make a few bucks back. BP can deduct the value of the tomato slicers and onion choppers from individual claims, minus of course the shipping and handling costs. This will make BP happy which seems to be the whole idea of the current cleanup process. If they are happy, we are happy.
