Well the crazy bald dwarf got her ass pounded into the ground (a short distance in her case) over the marathon bombing, so she's moving on to the Texas explosion.
Since no one at this time really knows what happened, the nutcase can say she does, and the DUmmies can't prove her a fool as easily as they did over the Boston bombings.
Unsurprisingly, the nutcase has all the inside knowledge and will explain it to the DUmmies.
Yup.

On the explosion in West Texas: a few important notes.
1.- The direct reason for the explosion was a lack of an industrial fire fighting system, and lack of training (and proper chemicals) for the first responders. Yup, ammonium nitrate is nasty and will react in interesting and exploding ways with water. None should blame the first responders. The company should have had the chemicals on site and train the responders. (FYI that costs money)
2.- Texas really has a very lose regulatory environment, and they are proud of it. And then the Feds have an agency without the people to do their job. This leads to the next point, you can have the most stringent of regulatory environments (we don't). If you don't fund it, it does you no good. Why Federal OSHA inspected this plant last in 1985.
3.- but DHS....their job is to track sales so Ryder trucks do not take the material to go make bombs.
4.- The company lied to the authorities...see point 2 again.
So while reason one is the direct reason for this, there is a whole chain of circumstances that lead to point one.
This is a tragic industrial accident, mark my words the company will declare chapter 11 before paying Butkus, and if they are an LLC... But the lesson should be more...not less regulation...with teeth.
Now on to the media...there are reasons why they are so quiet.
First, most reporters do not understand industrial accidents. We make PIOs nervous since we do. ???????
Second, they could call experts, the companies that own the media really do not want to plant the wrong ideas like regulation, and the need for it. You see point one...again, costs money and gets in the way of...profits.
our A few states, like California, have filled the hole left by lack of funding...but corporations complain, cause regulations get in the way of profits.
Oh and warm fuzzy, you got a rural area, chances are somebody is storing ammonium nitrite and other fertilizers...it's just the way it is. The question is, when was the last time they were required to offer an emergency plan, let alone inspected? And do your first responders know what they store? Manure, shmanure, but nitrates are considered hazardous materials. And I have noticed most folks here do not understand this.

Amazing how the crazy bald dwarf gets all this information before anyone else in the world. (None of this is known in the Caususasses.)
Legit news media will need to dial up Crazy Miriam's East County online pennysaver to read her scoops and learn what PIO means.

Butkus? :ROFL:
What does a legendary Chicago Bear have to do with this explosion? :lmao:

I assume that PIO means public information officer, and that nads used the abbreviation because (1) she can't spell for shit and (2) she thinks it makes her look more in the know.
I also assume that the 'we' that she is referring to is herself. I suppose this means that she's an industrial accident specialist now. Is that on the resume?

She's an industrial accident all right.

Maybe she's big enough to be a "we" now.

Well, she's very fond of using acronyms she runs across during her google searches because she thinks they sound like "inside baseball" and prove how savvy she is.
But in this case, I think it's from a nursery rhyme.
Old McDonald had a farm, PI, PIO.

18. Are you sure about the extinguishing agent?
I'm no expert, but everything that I can turn up in Google says that water is the preferred or only recommended extinguishing agent.

20. I am, due to the nature of the chemical
Since water is counter indicated with oxidizers.
So unless something changed....which could and does regularly.

No, really!?!? Is there any topic you are not the expert authority, other than Humility?
Uh oh, the crazy bald dwarf misread her google link!
The OP disappears down the memory hole, but the brawl between nutcase nadin and the rest of the DUmp is still there to enjoy!

So, Blob, tell me: You ascertained all of this from San Diego under nothing, but a complete assumption?

OK, you got it covered.

Who knows ? With Nad's accuracy record and spelling mastery, PIO could actually refer to an '80s hair metal band.

Please, just stop, Nadin. I say this with the utmost of care and respect. You don't know what you're talking about. You don't have the slightest grasp of the English language. When you arrogantly make assertions as if you are an expert on every single issue, you open yourself up to criticism from people who resent your attitude.

The Grate gNads should check the ingredients of cold packs. :-)
Active chemical is anydo. Ammonium Nitrate.
The activating agent.....diHydrogen Monoxide. :lmao:
GNads, no need to look it up....it's water.
