I remember when they said Ground Zero was safe after 9/11, and most of the first responders who entered without protection were dead or on their way to dying within five years.

“Note that they didn’t evacuate folks BEFORE they blew up the chemicals. In other words, they didn’t predict the fallout.”

That is a very generous reading, Jeff. I believe we are living in a time of Reverse Hanlon’s Razor:

“Never attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by malice.”

Jeff, thank you so much for keeping the awake informed of what is happening in our area. I live within 6 miles of disaster and have a rental within 500 feet of Ground zero. Do want to correct something so you dont get labeled a disinformation spreader...they enforced a Mandatory evacuation within the 1 mile hot zone. This was approximately 24 hours before they blew up the vinyl chloride cars. The cars were venting product as designed through the safety valves when reportedly they quit which indicated a BLEVE could occur. Look them up and see how bad that could have been. No way to know for sure if thats the truth but supposedly thats why the charges were initiated..We have been stone walled by the EPA, NS and our local "leaders" this entire time. NS has been given FULL COMMAND of the scene since last Friday night when it happened.. Supposedly didnt know what was on the cars which is completely BS until yesterday?? The EP fire department is stating all their gear and trucks are contaminated and un usable...Contaminated with what?? They are also not telling us what the h is the contamination. I had an EPA and CTEH technician come to my property hired through NS to perform air sampling....Just checking for VOC's which readily dissapate...They are NOT and no one is looking for the particulate as products of combustion after 5 days of burning and explosions..I have experience with air monitoring, rail cars and chemical plant experience. I KNOW how bad this is.. the EPA lady who was at my house also knew that I knew...she stated to me to keep my foot on the accelerator if I'm not getting answers...she knew herself this "air monitoring" is a side show...My place had VOC's in the PPB range but <.1 PPM which is acceptable...Again the particulate from a superheated flame of this posion is WHAT? WHAT about this crap that was burning all Friday night when the accident happened. We are being told everything is safe...just like the safe and effective gene therapies....I as well cannot confirm the die offs but am hearing about as well. No national news is following and am thankful and blessed you brought this to our teams attention! Please keep following this and help us get the answers we need. My concern is how contaminated is my property? And what recourse is available to me now that my property is basically a hazardous waste site? Thank you and god bless everything you do sir!
