BP’s Oily Mess Will Be Gone Shortly

BP’s new containment cap is reportedly

collecting 10,000 barrels of oil

a day. According to

BP’s original claims about the Deepwater Horizon spill rate

, that should be 10 days’ worth of oil. At that pace, the Gulf of Mexico will be completely oil-free by Wednesday or Thursday.

How are they going to convince

all those pelicans

to swim into the dome, though?
