We have a lot of plants down here.
They have been blowing up since long before al-Qaeda.

Once a-Q is exterminated, I reckon they'll still blow up once in a while.

Heck, the worst incident we ever had happened in 1947 about 4 miles from this one.
Mom was telling me about it today.. she was in high school and they called
all the Boy Scouts out of classes to help out in Texas City with evac and such.

A shipload of Ammonium nitrate and ammunition wasn't it?

humble, do not try to confuse these people with facts. Given the number of problems these plants have, given that it was a maintenance turnaround, and given that it was an area non vital to gasoline production, the chance that it was terrorism approaches zero. Every time a plant blows I make a bet with myself about how long it will be before you get the suggestion of terrorism/hmmmmm/move along, stupid comment.
