I often wonder if the FOX news that I get is in the same time as in the US. I am now watching Neil Cavuto...almost midnight CST.
No news about explosion.

Agreed, but I’m talking as the crow flies, or the shock wave spreads.

Halliburton spokesman says no report of explosion at their site but they felt 3 large explosions near them.

That Halliburton plant blows up every ten years or so.

if not Haliburtons site.. is there anything else around there?

If a house blew up, could it have been a meth lab?

not sure how big of a boom you can get out of one of those.

The report from the Haliburton spokesman said they heard three explosions. Interesting.

Maybe an earthquake. We’ve had several there the last few months.

Could be a home gas explosion too, but for three explosions that causes you to think that probably wasn’t it.

What was the weather like in the region?

I think this will turn out to be, tho devasting, contained local, gas leak incident.

Does anyone think it might be the handiwork of Green-weenie Eco-terrorists?

I don't think a Chevy Volt can make it there from Austin on one charge.

Okay, a log cabin structure...

Whew, not a good thing to happen if family is in the house.

A volt carries it’s on generator and could make it.

a tesla, well.. maybe not.
