That there's no video of the the repair work (not that I watch everything)? I would think that would be an important story. No tin-foil here, just surprised the story is being covered so badly.

| 3. All the water has flowed in |

Its has reached the same level as the lake, so some attempt at repair can be made. All the water will have to be pumped out, 2 weeks at least
