I just turned and looked out my office window and saw a column of black smoke rising towards Union Beach/Perth Amboy NJ.
I then felt the force of an explosion rattle my window.

No, I'm thinking they made plans with small boats for both coasts, but the boat in San Francisco was spotted.
The boat last week happened on a Friday, and today we have this on Friday.
Could have been a plan for both coats to be hit one week apart.
Just my opinion.

The oddest thing is that "Fire at Sea" was part of the Hostory Channel's programming yesterday.
CNN reporting that there are fatalities (specifically, "sources" are reporting them, no numbers given).
Down to one main fire in the loading facility, a couple of smaller fires on land, and a small fire on the water.

Also interesting to note that Fox was reporting that fuel for NY area airports comes through a pipeline via this location....

People accuse some of us on this site of liking the tinfoil stuff. But if people were to look at the 9/11 threads freepers had it called as a terror attack and named who did it....within minutes of the second plane hitting Tower II..

If one has a barge with a million gallons of gas on it, we don't need a guy in a zodiac for there to be danger of fire.

That's what is being reported on Canadian TV. I'm watching their feed. I'm not sure how anyone could know for sure what the death toll is.

Thanks for the screen capture pic. That looks nasty.
