Members of the House Judiciary Committee hear from survivors of the Gulf Coast rig explosion on Thursday. They will share a table with representatives of the companies involved in the rig's operation -- BP, Transocean, Halliburton and Cameron. It's the latest hearing on the oil spill aimed at trying to quantify the liability those companies face in the wake of the disaster.
