Edgar Allan Pwned posted:why couldnt we collect this vs just blowing it up there? They set it on fire, which is the prescribed way to deal with this particular hazardous material in the safest method, they didn't blow it up. This is mainly due to the fact that, since it's natural state is a gas, collection is a bit of an issue after it starts diffusing into the surroundings. Also it has the same flammability rating as propane, so a controlled burn is much preferable to letting it decide when to combust. Especially since it apparently likes to react with metals, while forming peroxides. A highly flammable gas that is hanging out and creating peroxides while it's waiting to ignite is very, very, bad news.

FWIW, I looked up wtf vinyl chloride is actually used for since I never heard anyone say and I was curious why we need big trainloads of itquote:Vinyl chloride is used primarily to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a hard plastic resin used to make a variety of plastic products, including pipes, wire and cable coatings, and packaging materials. (PVC is not a known or suspected carcinogen.) Vinyl chloride is also produced as a combustion product in tobacco smoke. Which got me thinking about plastics, especially all the plastic we use for water and beverage bottles. It probably has nothing to do with this train's chemicals but quite often I really wish we'd go back to more aluminum cans. Bottled water in particular really grinds my gears because it's so easy to just use a filter and a refillable bottle. Same with shopping bags for that matter. Mild derail apology.

Lockmat posted:My friend, the cans are lined with BPA OK. So....glass? I guess the move away from glass has to do with shipping weight and durability but, still, I think that's a fair trade off and it irritates me that 95% of things I can buy to drink are in a plastic bottle.

Also it has the same flammability rating as propane, so a controlled burn is much preferable to letting it decide when to combust. Especially since it apparently likes to react with metals, while forming peroxides. Yeah the firefighting protocol for dealing with any large spill of condensed flammable gas is to allow it to burn off in a controlled way because if you fully extinguish the flame, you then generate a flammable gas cloud that wanders around looking for trouble, and if you're really unlucky it will mix to within its explosive limits and you now have a fuel:air bomb. Firefighting foams are designed to float on top of stuff like LPG and insulate it so it doesn't boil off too fast, but you leave a gap in the middle of the foam blanket where the fire is allowed to continue and gradually burn off the spill, like a flame goatse. Doing this with Vinyl Chloride is probably a lot more tricky than with friendly propane though.

Because this is a political issue and not a legal one, the DA has to be the one files the indictments and they are going to be less likely to do that if they think they're going to have to fight tooth and nail and drag themselves over broken glass to do so.

I'm more weirded out by the fact that she is (apparently) allowed to disclose anything about the proceedings, but maybe that's not unusual for whatever type of process this is?
