Engineers had to completely uncap the broken oil well spewing into the Gulf of Mexico Wednesday after an undersea robot bumped into machinery being used to collect the spilled fuel. Hundreds of thousands of gallons more poured into the water as crews scrambled to replace a critical component.
Awwww. Shame on you BP. All little Carter wants to do is go to the beach and play in the water but he can't because it's covered in oil. His childhood is ruined.
