More on the sugar plant.Less than fifty injuries at this time.

The CEO was in the plant at the time of the explosion.

The emergency reponse was fast and effective.Help from a hundred mile radius apparently.

Ft.Stewart/Hunter provided helicopter transport to Augusta.

Most of the injuries are burns and some are reported to be up to 90% of a body.

There are still some pockets of fire but it seems to be controlled.

I understand that it would have been much worse if earlier in the day.

Roger,

Thanks for the update. I have been following it in the news here.

My prayers are with those folks ... especially the burn victims.

I was a burn patient years ago with 3rd degree burns ... went through

skin grafts, debreedings, infections, etc. .... PURE HELL ON EARTH !!!

I don't think that there is any more intense pain than severe burns.

Who wants to really drink some beer tonight? I know it's the middle of February, I know sports are over, but worse, motor racing is also in a bear-like slumber, and it keeps snowing, and it keeps snowing, and tractors are waiting for parts, and babes are waiting for parts, and rock and roll as we know it is dead, and the stock market is burnt toast, and . . . BUT LET'S DRINK SOME BEER LIKE A BUNCH OF RABID FALL-OFF-BOUNCE-BACK BOXCAR HOBOS. Who's in?

Tramp, it's only early February. In sports, isn't the Pro-Bowl this weekend. And in Nascar, isn't the Bud (or should it be the Coors) Shootout this weekend. Daytona next weekend. And I'm not sure if tractors are being rebuilt. Been a couple of days since Dirt reported. Farmall could've got the best of him, and he's under psychiatric care of the Redhead, in the hospital where they work. :lol: If I told you I'm drinking a large glass of ice cold milk, would you believe me? If I'm dyin', I'm lyin'. :) Let me stoke up this fire, and I'll get a round.

Some missions coming up and trying to fix some broke choppers this weekend for some overtime pay. (building the layout funds). Should have been a well deserved 3 days off to work on the layout- but heck- funds take priority around this camp! I'll join you all for a few beers!!!! Line 'em up bar-key!!!! This next rounds on me.
