my 0% wager is based upon live news coverage from the site and from the industry. while i can't think of any scenario where i believe the government, that doesn't mean that we cant draw conclusions based upon evidence.

since there was a release prior to the explosion that means the tank car was defective, either from design or mishap. the tank cars are stored in areas which are very far away from people and surrounded by other tank cars. i dont thik anyone has reported seeing 3 middle eastern men running through the storage yards.

even if they were there, i doubt if the tactic they would have tried is opening a valve on an ammonia tanker.

to make a long story short, these sorts of things happen not quite routinely but frequently. if we were not under orange alert this would be a purely local story and no eyebrows raised.

a final point. something is up in florida and with that bizarre ft. smith/shaving story. those are the stories to follow. this stuff in the chemical plant area in texas is not the main news of today.

"i dont thik anyone has reported seeing 3 middle eastern men running through the storage yards."

And here I thought folks were supposed to have an open mind here. I always suspect anyone who automatically says its not "Terrorist Related", might want to wait and see don't ya think? Now as for the statement I have quoted from you, If I am not mistaken a few "Terrorists" were other then Middle Eastern Persuasion, I.E. Latino/Hispanic, are you now going to say Texas has no one of Hispanic origin? Or that there were never any Hispanic folks walking anywhere near the tanker?

I bring this up because now they are saying the 3 men in the cars in FLA might be Hispanic. But of course we still have to have a open door policy in regards to immigration. One final note, The idiot(s) in the INS/FBI/Local law who let the two Middle Easteners out on 5000.00 bond in Baltimore, MD ought to at least be brought up on conspiring with the Enemy.
