    Holy Shiznit

    whoa:
    http://www.cnn.com/2002/US/08/13/hou...ion/index.html

    My place was shaking for about a minute 5:30 this morning. I've been assuming it was an earthquake all this time until a coworker asked if I was all right.
    Try not.
    Do or do not.
    There is no try.

    What? Never seen a house explode before?
    A house about 2 blocks from where I live exploded (just like that) back in the spring...

    You are not alone. I live in SA, and about 2 years ago there was a man who frequently worked with TNT. But anyway, he had a little accidend. An accident that set of 100kg of TNT.

    There was an 2m deep hole in the ground where the house used to be.

    The whole neighborhood was pulverised for 2 blocks.

    Our neighbors were having a room added on to their house, and the contractors broke their natural gas line, and didn't tell our neighbors about it. Their whole house was filled with natural gas when they got home from work. Luckily, none of them smoke.
    Naturally I didn't feel inspired enough to read all the links for you, since I already slaved away for long hours under a blistering sun pressing the search button after typing four whole words! - Quzah
