Oil tanker on fire in Providence harbor
Local TV news

Posted on 07/18/2006 8:01:21 PM PDT by Semper911

An oil tanker moored in Providence harbor was apparently struck by lightning, and is burning in towering flames. I posted this in breaking because there is an LPG tanker moored nearby, and officials are worried the mooring lines on the burning tanker will burn through, and it will drift toward the LPG.

I reckon the same guy, who let Otis the drunk drive the Exxon-Valdez.

He was only going 10mph & he hit a whole state!
