| I went to high school in the Houston area and they are fairly common there (a few a year) since there are all the refinery plants on the coast. Shockingly, usually there weren't too many people hurt (if any). They just mainly have to work on keeping it contained. So there's a good chance that most people got out before it got too out of hand since they have to plan on this happening at some point. |

it's near, but not too near...it was outside of downtown dallas, but in the really industrial area. it wasn't close to the busy part of downtown. crazy stuff. |
