This is a scary thing. I have relatives that live right next to the refinery. I hope that they are OK.

this really is scary. I just started a job at a refinery last week. They tell you about the hundreds of possibly fatal hazards, but this makes it more real.

My heart goes out to those workers. My nephew got third degree burns several years ago and I know by his experience how painful it is. Please, pray for them and their families so they have the strength to go through these hard times.

I heard deputy South Davis Metro Fire Chief Jeff Bassett on television and I just wanted to say that he did a great job on reporting the important facts of what happened at the time and providing important information for residents regarding a targeted evacuation.
