click on that link for press conference

Press conference starting now on the disaster response.
I'm listening to it now on CNN tv news.
First remarks were addressing top kill and stating that it did not succeed. The next option they will move to is a complex operation at 5,000 feet to cut and remove the existing riser. Then they will install a cap. That cap will be connected via a riser and pipe to connect to the ship above. Could take 4 days or longer.
