Dan,
At 12:31 PDT, I posed the question here about foam and plastic while it was
burning and flaming bits were flying, thinking that all the "wired" BP folk
would be watching the live feed on CNN too. I guess if it ain't in Nyawk
it must be Elsewhere. Thought of the fake stone details going up in smoke
and how practical and useful it was to have a fake classical cornice there
to catch the falling burning debris so only the wall above the cornice would
burn and not the whole facade. Amazing world! Sitting happily at home
eating my lunch while watching death defying firemen squirt a burning
faux-classic plastic nightmare floating hundreds of feet in the air. The
gory show was live on six channels. Ray Bradbury would have loved it.
For some reason it got instant (live) coverage in Canada, maybe because so
many Canadians go there to spend their newly at par dollars.
Will be thinking of you all while watching the Super Bowl.

Did anyone see the TV news video (my how times change that we have to
specify where it was that the video was seen) of the casino on fire? It
looked suspiciously like burning plastic whipping around -- kinda like what
I remember from my childhood pyrotechnics of cataclysmic collisions of
homemade-gunpowder-stuffed model cars.

Depends... but I think it is getting closer to some of us than to others.
