Two Jaw Dropping Moments
Jan. 16th, 2007 05:13 pmTrain carrying chemicals derails near Louisville, KY, catches fire.
I quote:
The crash set ablaze three cars loaded with cyclohexane....Other hazardous chemicals aboard the train included aniline...butadiene...and maleic anhydride, methionine, methyl ethyl ketone, polyethylene and sulfuric acid, all of which can cause serious health effects from exposure.
This sent the chemist part of my brain into babbling panic, which finally resolved itself into the conclusion of "No *shit*, Sherlock!" Just...*shudder*.
A few minutes later:
What the fuckhellcrap???!?!?!?!.
I thought we were done with the nasty cold precipitating shit, at least for this week. Now we're forecasted to have *sleet* and *snow* tonight??? Where do they think we're living, Canada? And then after that, rain, rain, and more rain. I want to see the sun, dammit!!!!!
