8. I never understood why they have to cap all three holes...

...since the first one, near the shut-off that malfunctioned, is the source. The other 2 holes are holes in the pipe that brought the oil up to the rig. Seems to me if you cap the primary hole, the oil will quit flowing into the other 2 holes.

Oh well, what do I know. It just seems odd.
