So, what's that put us at this week?

One bombing
Two ricin contaminated letters
Deliberate cut of 132 strand fiber bundle
Fertilizer plant explosion

I'm getting my tinfoil out.


Don't forget the "vandals" who shot up a sub station somewhere in California.

In the article they said there was an earlier fire they were putting down.  Sounds like it ignited some of the chemicals and has caused casualties at a nearby nursing home and apartment building.  Does not sound terroristic at this point.  Just deadly.

If you sensitize ammonium nitrate,  all you need is an ignition source.

Depends on the production demand.

Some of our plants here run 24/7 with 3 full shifts.

Feel bad for the folks there, fertilizer plant explosions are never small or contained very well.

There were reports that people were trapped in the nursing home and in an apartment building.

Scanner traffic indicated that some residents of both the nursing home and apartment building were severely injured.


Shit.  

Very very bad.  It's pretty windy right now too, so fires could spread quickly.
