"The material itself is flammable, etc., but the temperatures we are experiencing today shouldn't be a problem."


Ok, just makes you stop for a minute and wonder...

"Steele said methyl-ethyl ketone and methyl-isobutyl ketone, the chemicals released into the river, are used in the manufacturing of lubricating oil. The chemicals were described as highly volatile"

Of course, there is no danger.........

The larger water companies have 2 days supply of water.

Wrong, I am on a small water company, I laughed when we were warned a few years ago that the well would go down, and WE all rushed in and filled every container with water.

Therefore the 2 days quickly becomes a one day supply.

Of course, this has nothing to do with terrorists.
