    If you look at the western end of the outerbridge crossing, and follow down the coastline about an inch, that's where I work.

          Yep, I work third shift, though I normally don't hit the sack until noonish. Last time I fell asleep this early, I awoke forty minutes later to news o Columbia.

            In the vidcap above, that structure halfway in the water is the remains of the barge -- 10,000 gallons of gasoline.

            edit: Did I say ten thousand? I meant four million.

                Two crew that were on the barge are listed as 'missing'.

                This refinery is the largest in the Uited States, and serves the entire east coast. 55 million barrels are processed each day.

                            btw how is the weather down in aptos today?
                            Sunny. Strarted out at 36. It is usually five degrees colder than surrounding areas of the Coast.

                            I provided the alert here because I have never seen a fire that large before and it was being carried live on TV.
