The 19th of April will be the 20th anniversary of the Waco Compound death of 80 members of the Branch Davidians Sect.

So, did the explosion take out the fan? You know, the one that the shit must have hit.

Domestic terrorism it is then. Straight of the bat, this sounds like it's going to be worse than Boston

Fertiliser + fire = explosion risk. Surely a tragic accident.

Seems like too big a coincidence, with the Waco siege anniversary being tomorrow and what happened at Boston the other day. Then again, the wife and I have been watching 24 this week. So maybe I'm jumping the gun

It wasn't actually in Waco, it was in a town called West 20 miles away, so to assume this is in someway linked to what happened 20 years ago is a bit of a stretch.

This just seems like an accident.

Jesus, that's fucking huge.

Terrible, terrible ACCIDENT. Coincidence doesn't make things linked.

In hindsight, it does seem like a very silly place to store a boatload of explosive chemicals.  No worse than Buncefield  (http://thetownend.com/index.php?topic=8277.0)I suppose.
