The last time I recall reading about something like this within a family group in a poor area, some idiot poisoned everyone accidently by BBQ ing in doors.

And if it gets in the water supply we are in serious trouble

This makes me crazy. The way they (the media) don't report on it makes me wonder what's really going on.

I am watching News 12 and the Mayor of Yonkers says that only the people in the Row houses were exposed to the hazardous material. They described as the people exposed were green and foaming at the mouth.

I re-read the AP release: "Mexican police found a stolen truck on Thursday ..."

It was sloppy writing, sounded like the truck was stolen Thursday. It was actually stolen last Friday and found today.

Looks like what they ate was laced with some sort of material. They are reporting in front of St. Joseph's. 6 People were effected and 2 are on life support. The case is being considered criminal at this point.

Close those windows and seal them with duct tape. Turn off any ventilating systems that might bring in outside air.

Well, that's it for me. I can't stay up any more. By the time they straighten out their story, I'll be sound asleep. Good night.
