I just was watching CNN and there was an
Explosion at the Unison Industries, in Jacksonville, Fla!!!
Are you close to that place????

Said something about radioactive stuff
*well, they just said it was contained inside*
supposedly!!! :rolleyes:

Just wondering...
and makin' sure all is well and a~okay with you
and family...

I just saw the same thing here weezie hope G-Mom and all are safe .
Jimmy

Wow, that's scary.....

Hope Gmom and family are safe!

Who's got G-moms phone number? Hope she checks in soon. I'll worry until she does. I'll be praying too.

I just did a little research and it said that the radiation was not a threat to people living in the area.....

That the radiation exposure was low and equilvalent to an x-ray, but that employees there were being decontaminated as a precaution only.

So I think she should be okay, that's still scary though. We have a huge paper mill here, and every wednesday at noon they set off their emergency test siren just in case something really bad were to happen. And it's really close to me, so it's scary thinking of things like that.

Thansk for the update there Loz. Still hope Karen checks in soon to let us know they are all ok.

If she doesn't check in soon I'll call her.

I know they said they contained it,
but sometimes, you just never know...
So, anyways, just wanted to make sure all
was well...... and Not ruinin' her Superbowl Party Plans

thanks for the update loz,

i guadered she works at unison,what is unison by the way.

in anycase i sure am praying for her and hers,so everything will be alright.

jimmy,are you geting better or do we have to do some petunia kiking,take care of yourself.


bye all

Hidey-Ho

All is well on the home front down here(as well as it can be with 2 teens in the house :rolleyes:

The explosion happened on the other side town from me. We are at the south/westmost corner of Jax.

Yeah...they are always gonna say that :rolleyes: Whether or not it's true,what are ya gonna do? If it is meant to have an effect on your life,it will. That's just the nature of life. They were concerned about the Kryptonite Gas that was released but,it doesn't appear that the radioactivity will be a problem,thank goodness

Good to hear all is "basically" well...
Yes, on the "supposedly"....
We have several t*xic area's around WNY and
they're still cleaning them up and they said
they were okay back then too..

I figured it was a big town and it did say it
was on one side, so hopin' you were on the other side..

Just didn't want nothing to screw up the SBP!!!
I'll have to bring up your plan maker post and
see how you're doing!!

Well, I guess Superman will be steering clear of Jacksonville for awhile!

OMG, Cindy!

I had thought the same thing.
but was pressed for time and couldn't post that..
but I figured SOMEONE WOULD PICK UP ON IT!!! :rolleyes:

I am going to start a new post..
IN THE NEWS....

There's an explosion in NC now...

good to hear that g-mom

have a good day!

Franny.
