a good ole boy came up with this in 5 min. while BP's best are still scratching their asses and spending millions not solving shit.

Hmmm really? All of the oil must be at the surface then, not 5k feet under water. It is a surface solution in regard to cleanup. I rather like the idea, could be the newest hybrid fuel. They need to drill a few relief wells and kill the well downhole and stop adding fuel to the enviro and dimtards fire to stop drilling.
Evertime there's a spill I think that it would be posible to build a tanker with a suction device to suck up the oil, put it though an onboard seperator, salvage the oil and pump out clean sea water. If someone could perfect that they'd make a fortune from fees and the reclaimed oil they'd keep and sell.

Its a Weir system,used a with boom. 2 ships pull the boom around,then a ship lowers the 250 to suck off the oil. Oil is the put in holding tanks to be separated.
While in Alaska at CISPRI think it was called a Oceania 250.We transferred our oil to the 401 barge.At a later date we would do the separation process.

I'm pretty confident that BP could just as easily separate oil out of only 3 gallons of water in a controlled environment.

Well, the hay thing is pretty cool (would make a great science fair project), but I think it's a little hasty to assume these guys have the answer. I wonder if the hay will act the same in salt water as it does in fresh water.
It seems like you could build a voluminous net that is filled with hay (like a big sponge) sink it in the water, and tow it through the water. In addition to that, you could build a similar large sponge and sink it right over the hole so the oil has to pass directly into and through the makeshift "filter". Seems like the leak is big enough that they wouldn't be able to replace the hay filter fast enough though.
