Uhhh....
I've never ascribed to doomsday scenarios, but these articles are concerning:

http://www.helium.com/items/1882339-...-killing-event
The verbiage is Wells-esque, especially in the 2nd article, but the sources appear legit. Professor Kessler from TAMU certainly has found very high levels of methane, multiple sources put methane pressures at 40,000+ psi.
If BP is really drilling relief wells 10,000 feet below the sea floor, that seems far beyond what we've all been told is the worst case scenario in containing the blown well.
Any geo-scientists here? Opinions? (I'll gladly go back to my Summer '10 PAC afterglow)
