Gulf Oil Spill May Far Exceed Government, BP Estimates

NPR writes Gulf Oil Spill May Far Exceed Government, BP Estimates "A computer program simply tracks particles and calculates how fast they are moving. Wereley put the BP video of the gusher into his computer. He made a few simple calculations and came up with an astonishing value for the rate of the oil spill: 70,000 barrels a day — much higher than the official estimate of 5,000 barrels a day."
