Is there any chance that something meaningful will be done this time with odds better than winning the lottery?
lol no
People ask me why I left America . . .
Because you’re wanted by the feds for a campaign of train derailments?
. . . Yes . . .
Spill on me once, shame on you. Spill on me twice, shame on me.
Spill me three times… Can’t get spilled again.
A little molten sulfur never hurt anybody!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
MOUNT VERNON, Ky. (AP) — A train derailed and spilled a chemical in a remote part of eastern Kentucky on Wednesday, prompting officials to encourage residents of a small town to evacuate amid concerns about air quality.
Andy Beshear said in a statement that local officials in Rockcastle County were encouraging residents of Livingston, with a population of about 200, to evacuate.
It’s believed that the fire is releasing sulfur dioxide, but the amount won’t be confirmed until measurements are taken from air monitoring equipment that was being deployed Wednesday night, Tucker said.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency website, sulfur dioxide can cause respiratory problems, depending on the concentration and length of exposure.
The gas is commonly produced by burning fossil fuels at power plants and other industrial processes, the EPA says.
John Mura, a spokesman for the state Energy and Environment Cabinet, said he didn’t have further information on the quantity of chemicals released.

What chemical was it?
Two of the derailed cars were carrying molten sulfur, which caught fire after the cars were breached… it is believed that the fire is releasing sulfer dioxide
Sulfer dioxide is pretty nasty on a person’s throat and sinuses to breathe and can make fluid build up in the lungs, and it can have longer-term effects if the exposure is sustained.
