I had stopped by my Dad's house in SBR to get some pipe fittings to restore water service to a lady friend's house that had busted pipes. His house is raised and it shook the whole house. Unbelievably cold-had a house full of Chalmations in-laws staying for the holidays at my stepmom's house in the BR Garden District where I was living and the floor furnace wouldn't work so we all slept in the kitchen and dining room with the oven door open for heat.
And yeah, the guys that are still around get very somber talking about that day. It's never easy losing a coworker, even one you don't know very well.

True. Also, a tip of the hat is in order to whoever fought the resulting fire. Must be very tough putting out a fire that size, especially when you consider that they had no idea what dangerous flammable chemicals were on site at the plant just waiting to ignite or explode or poison them with very toxic fumes.

Forgot the guys name running the course last week, knew his stuff when talking on this subject. Basically said it was what led him to give back in the way he is. Had to be like driving in to hell with all the fires raging.
