Not my video but all I could hear is non-stop explosions. Took the local news outlets over 30min to report anything. This happened near a air base some spooky thoughts ran through
my mind.

A#1, you don't have to use any code to insert Youtube clips into messages.  Just put the URL there and the forum software automatically embeds the video.

B#2, what was it?

Thanks for the tip. The place was a propane and medical gas company. They filled up industrial cylinders.

Believe it or not that happened not too far from here in Danvers, MA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Danvers_Chemical_Fire) in 2006.  Chemical manuf was storing like 3x the legally allowed amount of combustibles and one night on the weekend the building just blew up.  Through some miracle nobody was killed, though there is a theory that it's possible someone was in the building at the time and there were simply no remains.

Big badda boom ... scary stuff ... the 401 (North America's busiest highway) is still closed.I can't ever think of a time when that happened for this length of time.

Last big local gas explosion, which was WAAAY smaller than this, was about 3 blocks away from me and shook the house nicely. I can't imagine what this one was like (and, nope, it didn't wake me up, but I was sleeping off my 6YO's birthday party, so ...).

So the key question is did the stripper go home after her show or did she sneak out in the morning?

It isn't nice to take the little brother's woman.
