Thanks for the pix, that was a pretty nasty explosion.  An oil refinery is a dangerous place.

Hey, a guys got to have dreams too.

No problem on sharing the pics.

I was on assignment at our companies BP Task Force office (off site) working on various projects at this Texas City site when the explosion occurred.

It took the lives of 15 very fine folks.

I'm sorry to hear that.

BP employee, contractor or rescue?

I think I read in the Houston Chronicle, that BP/Ammoco was heavily fined for the explosion.

That was very interesting.  Two malfunctioning alarms led to this problem.
