Automated robots for firefighting have been available for about 50 years. They look like little bulldozers and trail water hoses. Nozzles all over.

PLEASE.......find picture of these brave little machines.

its OK if you dont'. I just liked the mental picture I got when you described them. I have never seen one.

Elaine: (to Kramer)"You just can't have the bike. You take these things to literally....it's like saying 'I'm so hungry I could eat a horse'."

Kramer: "Well my friend Ray Schneidermeyer eats horse all the time. He gets it from his butcher."

It must have burned out or something. Bush's speech has been over for a while and they still haven't gone back to the fire.

What was up with the disrupters at Cheney's speech? I couldn't make out a word they were saying.

Remember Texas City.

I do. I was about a mile from the Grandcamp when it exploded. The shock wave blew my window and blinds across the room into the opposite wall.

The Grandcamp contained about 2,200 tons of ammonium nitrate. The Oklahoma City bombing was estimated to have involved less than 2.5 tons of ammonium nitrate (about 4,800 pounds).

diesel fuel is there too

They need to be in a mixture to become an explosive. As mentioned above, even the mixture will probably just burn since it isn't configured as an explosive.

Should be available with a Google search.

Old versions were wire or remote controlled. People seem to want self-controlled ones now.

Several miles

The more the better... and they better send some extra security to the tank farm.
