Music Video: Texas Oil Well Blowout

This was in 1996 in Green Ranch, Texas, at the Monterey Well #1. “A river of oil is seen running from this well. The oil is spewing out despite the ‘blowout preventers’ being closed. One location over a new well is to be drilled today, in today’s new world of high oil prices. http://www.EnergyInvestmentGroup.com is participating. There is a real danger of the rig being melted to the ground. See the tanker trucks racing to get there, the concrete pumpers by BJ pumping, the rig hands running, the drilling rig sitting silently above it all. Thanks for watching. Dallas Dave.”

There is a new links category in my sidebar, on petroleum, and it will grow. I plan to create one on the prison industrial complex as well. It is really important to look into these worlds. I would like degrees in Physics and Engineering so I could truly understand drilling. I realize this is a naive question but from a common sense viewpoint it does not seem wise to perforate the Earth so as to extract contents that are under that much pressure.

Axé.

  1. OK, to make room for the new category / categories and to shorten my links list, I have eliminated the “Habladores” category (links to other blogs). Sorry. It is going to reappear on my research blog, along with good link categories from some of my other, truly defunct blogs.

    Other categories are flagged for possible moving as well: the film/arts one, and the books/magazines one. This blog has far too many links and I believe these changes will improve it and my other blog as well.
