    To stop the leak in the Gulf...

    Step 1. Get a submersible vehicle, like the ones that go to the Titanic, equipped with a heavy duty saw. Go down 5000 feet to the well-head.

    Step 2. Locate a point on the pipe two feet above the well-head, and cut the pipe. Make a clean, level cut.

    Step 3. Take a heavy piece of cone shaped metal, like a plumb-bob, and attach it to a 10 feet piece of heavy pipe. The wide end of the plumb-bob should have a diameter at least twice that of the leaking oil pipe. This all should be very heavy. On the other end of the pipe is a hook, to which a cable will be attached. Lower the whole thing down to the leaking oil pipe that you've just cut.

    Step 4. With the submersible guiding the way, drop the plumb-bob apparatus onto the leaking pipe. The plumb-bob will wedge itself into the pipe, plugging the leak. Secure the plumb-bob to the well head support structure."
