More on the Denver story re propane tanks:
FBI investigating Denver propane thefts
11/8/2004, 3:29 p.m. ET
The Associated Press
DENVER (AP) The FBI is investigating the reported thefts of scores of propane cylinders in the Denver area a crime spree that has raised fears of a terrorist attack.
About 100 cylinders, each containing about 7.8 gallons of the highly flammable gas and weighing about 33 pounds, have been stolen from various businesses since July, FBI agent Monique Kelso said Monday.
The investigation was first reported by KMGH-TV in Denver.
"The potential threat is that these propane tanks get into the wrong hands ... and get into the hands of those that are willing to commit a crime on the magnitude of the Oklahoma City bombing or another terrorist attack," Kelso told the station.
She said Monday the tanks might also have been taken to power equipment such as farm machinery. The tanks are larger than those used for barbecue grills.
Twenty-eight propane cylinders have been stolen from Dal-Tile Corp. of Denver, including 10 in the past six months, said Randy Warren, operations manager at the ceramic tile manufacturer.
"Why are they so adamant in cutting a lock, cutting chains, trying to rip the doors off or whatever it is to get to these?" he asked.
This story really frightens me. This has been happening since July?
What about the airlplane that crashed into the NJ neighborhood?
Nope. Try to cut and paste this. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1274571/posts
This is the saddest news I could ever have expected to hear. Tears from me shared with Knak and her son. Bless Knak for her strength and give her peace of mind in this time of great hardship for her and her son.
The amount of damage done the the pentagon is far more severe than an F-16 mounted air-to-air missile could ever produce. Airforce missiles do not have the fancy paint job shown in the photo, nor the thin, aluminum skin present in the photo. The missile story is bogus, internet rumor, urban legend, et al.
There were two small planes that collided last summer. Not sure, was there are more recent crash?
Thank you my precious.
Awwwww! Thanks! The kiddo is napping, hubby's at work and I'm FReeping. All's right with this little part of the world.
Other than the fact that I feel OLD! lol
Oh no. Prayers for knak, her hubby and family.
Thanks for all the articles/links all4one.
Setting placemark and heading home.
Have a safe and quiet evening folks. See you tomorrow.
Prayers for comfort and strength for knak and her family. This is just unbelievably sad.
Also important to remember: The Pentagon is a militarty HQ, hardened against attack, so it would probably have disintegrated many of the lighter parts of an aircraft, and the only penetration it would suffere would be from the densest pieces, notably the cabin floor and cockpit hardware, which is just smaller than the hole in the pentagon itself.
Note also, when you have something hit at that speed, it's going to punch, not splatter. The fire on the outside of the building is consistent with the postiiong of the fuel tanks in the airliner's wings, but not with the explosion of a missile, which would have penetrated the building and then exploded inside.
Breathe, SlowBoat, breathe.
Be aware, I also believe that men landed on the moon, and that the face on mars is a trick of light and shadow.
If you review the tape w/ audio and pay attention, the plane is visible flying a few feet off the ground (a plane as described by witnesses) and not a missile! You can see is as a blur just as the first frame with the explosion is occurring. It is rumors like this that do a disservice to the families of those who were aboard that aircraft.
