Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Well, there's the one that happened in the 40s, where all the footage is B&W. And there's the one that they have color footage of from so far away that the gigantic iron drums look like soda cans flying into the air (as the shockwave rolls across the plain). And there are at least two more, than I can't remember exactly the details of.
Seriously, Texas? Maybe the oil business is not the business for you. Klutzy people don't own china shops, you know?
If it weren't TX, it would be some other state. It's just inherent ot the business.
A couple of my friend's parents worked across the border for various gas refineries, so we heard lots of stories about workplace accidents involving things going boom.
Gas explosions in Dallas on the news. With NYC, SF and now this I worry.
Any terrorist worth his salt would be taking credit for all of this.
Slacker Al Qaida, nothing sadder.

Actually, this one wasn't oil or gas.

Reporter Matthew Haag spoke to Dallas Fire-Rescue Lt. Joel Lavender, who said the fire started on an 18-wheeler on a loading dock on the back side of Southwest. The fire then spread into the building, where tanks of oxygen tanks, helium and acetylene began blowing up.

Yeah, those Muggles will believe anything...

Firefighters hate it when helium tanks blow up - it leads to them talking in high-pitched voices.

Yeah, the explosion at Grand Central was similar for the first half hour or so. Even after we got some information there was a lot of "They ALWAYS say its a transformer..."
(and it turns out it wasn't a transformer, so they probably WERE just saying it...)

Oh. Oh, man.
My bad. I was trying to incinerate the Dalai Lama, but I sneezed.

I'd imagine they also hate the inert gas pushing out and replacing breathable oxygen. Though at least it doesn't contribute to the burning!
