I njust checked another news site. Explosion was at Severstal company-Formerly Ford Rouge Steel.

Pretty dangerous place to work. This place is the definition of Heavy Industry.

Thanks. If so, not owned by Ford, unless they retained partial interest. "Rouge Plant" has become synonymous with Ford over the years. And the place does seem to be explosion-prone.

I remember taking a tour of the plant when I was younger. There is a portion of it called the "soaking pits". If you think hell is supposed to be an inferno, you should have seen that place!
