but it seems the gene pool has been cleaned up a little.....
1) Cruel comment. They were teenagers. Teenagers are ignorant and notorious for believing that they are impervious to harm. 2) There is a HUGE difference between ignorance and stupidity.

Yes, you are right. My point is that their "ignorance" comes from their parents desire not to "teach" them. I see it all the time. Yes, the comment was cruel.....but not as cruel as their deaths. If someone had really cared they wouldn't have let them mount the oil "can."

Bravo.

If anyone wants to point fingers, how about all of the adults who build dangerous facilities and then don't secure them. If a teenager can wander into a facility like that and set off an explosion by accident, someone with malice could easily do the same on purpose.
