The largest hospital here easily handled the trama.
Ambulances from 5 counties responded.

We're about 15 miles southeast of the plant, felt and heard the explosion but didn't find out till an hour or so later that it wasen't the military base to our southwest doing manuvers.

Saw that on the news last night. I guess divers are still searching for the missing in the river. Scary $hit.

Tsubaki,
I'm on Wilmington Island. I felt my house shudder like a sonic boom!

Hey whatknot, I'm on Wilmington Island too. When I heard it I thought something hit my house! I foresee a Savannah/SC Lowcountry get-together sometime this summer. Our prayers go out to the families and victims. An old neighbor of mine I thought worked there, but turns out he works at the new dixie crystals facilities thank God.

Cool. Do you fish?
