Eh, oh well. I've always been depressed and had poor health anyways.

Numbers Game
10 of the 20 rail cars contained Vinyl Chloride. On Monday, the national guard used Thermite devices to burn a hole into the bottom of 5 of the remaining that were still burning and then drained the Vinyl Chloride, Phosgene and Butyl Acrylate into a ditch lined with flares to purposely burn the material off.
5 rail cars x estimated 200,000 lb vinyl chloride per = 1,000,000 lb vinyl chloride combusted into Phosgene. The combustion products from vinyl chloride monomer gave 27,000 ppm HCl, 58,100 ppm CO2, 9500 ppm CO, 40 ppm phosgene. That's 27,000 lb HCl and 40 lb Phosgene pumped into the troposphere.
The EPA Results[1]
- 9x normal levels of Acrolein.[2]
- 2x normal levels of Benzene[3]
- 23x normal levels of Ethylbenzene[4]
- Phosgene is not included in the panel[5]
Bunch Of Vids
- Video showing NS workers working in secret at night
- Animals being reported dead for miles
- Evidence contaminants reached at least as far as Darlington[6]
- Reporter Arrested By Major General of National Guard
- Thousands of Dead Fish
- Dead chickens 10 miles away
- View of explosion
- More fire
- Wheels on fire?
Vinyl Chloride
First of all, you need to know that there is absolutely no safe level of Vinyl Chloride in your air or in your drinking water, no safe level.
Vinyl Chloride gets into the ground water and can volatilize and turn into a vapor that can seep into people's homes through the ground. If it's true then the whole area over the interconnected aquifer is in danger of vinyl chloride exposure whether they drink the water or not.[7]
News Tidbits
- Ohio train derailment spilled chemicals into Ohio River
- Norfolk Southern fined $27,300 for spilling more than 1,000 tons of coal the Roanoke River
- Footage showing a fiery axle 20 miles before East Palestine train derailment raises questions about alert timing
- Biden signs bill to block U.S. railroad strike
Railroads have slashed labor and other costs to bolster profits in recent years, and have been fiercely opposed to adding paid sick time that would require them to hire more staff.[8]
Scams?
A warning[9] from East Palestine Police. Someone is walking around town promising money and potentially getting personal information.
East Palestine Police say this person is not employed by Norfolk Southern. The rail company is only addressing residents at the assistance center, with the exception of scheduled meetings with any residents who are confined to their home due to a disability, according to a message on the East Palestine Police Department’s Facebook page.[10]
Police want you to report anyone coming to your home claiming to be a representative from Norfolk to call them at 330-426-4341. They also advise you not to give anyone you do not know your personal information.
Testing
Testing companies have a terrible track record and have been known to fake test samples. Tetra Tech is doing the testing. Tetra Tech has a history of falsifying results.[11] CTEH is also contracted to answer questions. CTEH has a history of falsifying results.[12]
Here is a timeline of what the EPA is doing and what they have done so far.
And here is a list of testing companies by county in Ohio.
Cincinnati, Ohio, far south of the accident is already alarmed and is planning a course of action in case the spilled chemicals reach that far south of the accident site:
Protip: whenever an obviously catastrophic disaster like this occurs, and the authorities assure the public that everything is fine, they are probably doing so because they know that there isn't anything they can do to alleviate the situation, and telling the truth would cause unnecessary anguish.
