Jimmy' I'm ok not our plant but just down the road from us and the they do the same type of work that we do. What I've heard was a well head blew off and started a huge fire. I've got to go in tonight to cover for members of our ERT that were called out to fight fire. I'll keep everybody posted. Thanks for thinking of me.

Fire down to a controlled burnout. Crews keeping everything wet and they will have to let all the gas burn off. Not a pretty sight , all the twisted piping and burnt vehicles and vessels. We had a bad fire in 1985 killed two people and did 62 million dollars damage. I had only been here 5 months scared the sh#t out of me. We were back up and running making product  in three days.

News tonight says one contract worker still unaccounted for.  Doesn't sound good.  With all of the reporting procedures in place at plants like this. 
Prayers for all involved.

We were told everybody ok. A lot of the people were out of the area gone to lunch. We won't know until tomorrow probably.

Glad to hear you're OK, hope the contract worker shows up. Sometimes people panic in these situations and forget to account for themselves, hope this is the case.
