I think they'll accelerate the divi, to make less caysh available for plaintiffs, then declare BP and reorganize under bankruptcy protection. It would explain the current stall tactics. They should be spinning off subsidiaries left and right that aren't related to the Gulf, too.....at least that's what I'd do if I were Satan...ERRRR, BP's board.

As long as they get the thing fixed and pay for the clean up then what's wrong with paying the dividend? A whole lot of people depend on BP for jobs and dividends.
