Of course I think this is a terrible tradgedy to those involved.
But-- How scary must that house have been before the fire, with the 16 oxygen tanks, the '10' residents of the house, it must have been nasty in there.

...lol. thats up emmetts way where this happened. i got the impression its an indian reservation? maybe im wrong. i agree about the house harp, theres a ton of people not as lucky the rest of us. who knows why someone ends up poor. it doesnt look like the good times were all that good either.....so much for oxygen doesnt explode. i wonder what the catalyst is tho, a stove or a cigarette. messed up.

Any gas under pressure will explode due to the pressure, not whether its flammable or not.

This story is sad, I hope the people had insurance.

Most of them probably don't and could benefit from a national healthcare system like the oone in Euorope.

Did I say that?

I watch this and see the evidence of a land bridge from Asia tens of thousands of years ago. And the state of native communities, if they can be called that. And I deplore the lack of really big explosions and fire.

I think the insurance Zed was referring to is homeowner's or renter's insurance.

My first shop was in an ad-on in a mobile home, I would check my shop all the time I was so paranoid that would happen. Those things are like a pile of kindling.
