This is the first step forward for America where we can actually say that the amount of oil leaking at the Gulf 1 of Mexico could be slowing down. What BP tells us is that last night they successfully inserted that tube that they were going to use to siphon that oil up to a containment 2 vessel 3 on the surface. During the testing,that became dislodged. They said that was a disappointment,but they were able to successfully reinsert that tube. It's not clear if that tube is operational at this moment. But they were successfully able to test this and make sure that the theory that they have does work. So we are waiting to find out soon if this is working right now,if it's truly pumping oil out of the pipe and into the waiting containment vessel. If so,that is a big step forward in keeping more oil from spilling into the Gulf of Mexico.
