Rebar fall at Texas Instruments plant project site hurts 4RICHARDSON, Texas Fire-rescue crews are trying to reach workers trapped by a rebar collapse at a Texas Instruments construction site near Dallas.The incident happened today at T-I's three (B) billion-dollar wafer-fabricating plant project in northern Richardson.
Interim Fire Chief Alan Palombo says four workers have suffered mild to moderate injuries, but that rescue crews have managed to remove just one of those workers.
Palombo says the rebar mat for a second floor fell as concrete was being poured.
The new plant is a partnership with the Unversity of Texas at Dallas and is expected to employ about a thousand workers.
The state has committed 50 (M) million dollars from the Texas Enterprise Fund to the project -- which aims to bolster U-T-D's engineering and computer science programs.

So it IS the President's fault, he coordinated the effort to cause the building to collapse, and then ordered the emergency crews to re-route the traffic to the TOLL road that he owns, and then raised the price of the TOLL, thus ensuring maximum profit. WOW .. this is great... someone call DU quick..
