Yes, the guy that said that the well was in "stable" condition has some 'splaining to do. "Stable" is a relative term. Does he mean that the well is the same as it was- gushing out frack fluid? Does he mean that it's "stable" like a volcano which is not erupting at this particular time? Doctors use "stable condition" to describe anything from "out of the woods" to "vital signs are OK, but brain isn't". Even death could be called a "stable" condition. It's not going to change barring a miracle.So, he needs to give us some clarification- just what IS "stable" about this well?
