What? Are you saying OP made it up?

You don't think a massive chemical spill of a deadly known carcinogen is a big deal?
No, not for me personally at this time.

Probably Cyanide too?
Nah. Cyanide has a triple bond. You never see bonds between molecules increasing from a single to double to triple during a random combustion fire.
Now, the train could have had a tanker carrying cyanide. That is very common.

This is one for Art Proefrock. Have they even called him?

Ohio River looks to be right there.

You can't? Unless it has to do with developing weapons technology, everything the US does is cheap and flimsy.

Local media matters with these type situations quite honestly. Don’t know about this particular area but there has been a big decline in small town journalism across the country. Local newspapers in such areas have been shutting down and nothing digital is replacing them.

Yeah I’m sure there are “people saying” these things. Just not credible people.
That EPA report about water quality issues took like 2 minutes to dive into and clearly see that it has nothing to do with this derailment. But you get a combination of people who are either A) being disingenuous/trolling or B) panicking, and then it spreads like wildfire.

They are finding dead animals 100 miles away so far and allegedly a cloud of this stuff is heading East toward New York

What new happened, I read they burned off the chemical in a controlled burn after venting it from the train... I know nothing either but the EPA said all samples were within normal ranges.
What is the source for this post?
Yes, I know you cannot believe the government and everyone is out to get you/us but that is not a source.

Another two weeks to flatten the curve? That's what some are people are saying needs to happen.

I know nothing about the stuff but I am sure there are some guys that work at places like Westlake Polymer that can tell us about it. This was uncured polyvinyl chloride which is a very deadly and dangerous carcinogen. This stuff is going to destroy that OH town it happened in. Their water supply will never recover. Just wondering what the risk of it affecting the rest of the country really is.
The odd thing is the national news is very silent on it yet we all know Rhianna is pregnant again.
I imagine it's going to be a hard sell to get most Americans back to two weeks to flatten anything.

No it’s not. Old timers used to walk around in this stuff cleaning out reactors. Eventually some of these same old timers would develop angiosarcoma, a rare liver disease. It took a lifetime to develop this disease so it won’t kill you just from breathing it or getting it in you.

Thank you for the clarification

Just speculating here. The black is obviously carbon...soot. The yellow around the edges looks like it could be HCL mixing with water vapor. Best case it spreads far and wide. In low concentrations HCL is basically harmless. In this situation dilution is the solution to pollution.

Pipelines don’t derail.
