Well if you want to see if a bomb went off listen for car alarms…..it would be interesting to see from air the radius of blinking lights from car alarms , it would give you an idea of the power of the pressure wave from this blast.

Russians are bumbling idiots. It is a miracle they have gotten as far as they have. They make Detroit look like it runs like a well oiled machine. I wonder how many the accidentally killed trying to get into space.

  And Americans are so much wiser, right; four more years of B.O…..even with his record and Marxist ideology. It seems both counties are continuing down the wrong path.

This was done by the local glazier union. They promised an explosion in new job opportunities.

kind of hard to blow up a container of any size of propane without fire first super heating it, or extreme rupture of tank by explosive. What/why no explanation?

  Hi DadRocked,
  
  On that other story you mentioned Fairfax. Have you seen the Islamic Academy on Rt 1?
  
  If you have, do you know what it used to be?

It’s called a BLEVE. Here is an explanation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl-JgyQA7u0
Who knows what kind of inferior equipment they run over there. This does happen in modern America but it is very seldom with the safety protocols that are in place. I really hope no one was hurt.
