No, I'm not an electrician. Any information I share is purely what I would do myself. If in doubt, hire an electrician!

Hmmm. I'm heading that way tonight. Hope the wind is away from the airport area.

Man I used to work just a block or two from there. About 10 years ago but still, makes you realize how lucky you are sometimes. If that happened 10 years ago, I might not be here!!!

A lot of folks were lucky today. Only 3 injuries! I guess some guardian angels had their work cut out for them in Dallas.

Yeah Greg, one report said that from the time the problem was first seen, they had 3 to 4 minutes to get out of there before the expolsions started. At least 2 of the cylinders hit Reunion Arena between 1/3 and 1/2 mile away. Reporrs of ash and 1/4" sized pieces of concrete found 3 miles away!

I tried to get information from the national "news channels" (CNN, FOX, etc.), all they had on was news of LL's DUI arrest. Finally it came on, 30 seconds on the Dallas fire after 5-6 minutes on LL. What a crock. I guess someone had to die in Dallas to get national coverage!
