Opinion: U.S. must do more to fight radical Islam
We should blame both greed and OSHA for not doing their jobs. OSHA didn't do anything about my husband's complaints either.

He was asked what needed done to improve the lab safety, since he was the safety officer, so why do you think he said something? Also, he has called OSHA.
Why the hate? You seem pretty agitated. My point simply is that the people who ran the fertilizer plant most likely knew the chemicals weren't stored properly. In fact, one of the news stories I watched indicated that they had cited them before for safety violations.

Have you ever wanted to play Quidditch?
The books are great...reading's quite fun. Nothing to do with pop culture.

Emily must have been living under a rock during the whole Harry Potter phase. Even if you have never read the books or seen the movies, how do you not know what it is? I can understand older folks not knowing, but she seems pretty young.

My husband, a chemist, used to work in a warehouse that contained many explosive, hazardous materials improperly stored. If these chemicals caught fire, almost a square mile of Olathe would be gone, with nothing but a massive crater to indicate where the warehouse once sat. He noted this to his management and they fired him (used other excuses, of course). He said this kind of thing happens a lot in this industry, due solely to greed. The people who ran the fertilizer plant knew what they were doing was wrong and could cause major devastation. I'm sure their safety officer, if they had one, took note of the issues. They chose to ignore the safety concerns in the name of profit.

City set to make additional improvements to Sixth and Iowa intersection
Few minutes across? You OBVIOUSLY have not tried to take 23rd all the way from the west side of town (Clinton Parkway) to K-10 on the other end. It takes on average about 20-30 minutes due to the heavy traffic.

No, Worlds of Fun. The ride is no longer there, but at one point, it was one of the oldest roller coasters in the area.

Loved that ride, thought it terrified me when I was young. Always felt like you were going to slide right off the track.

STOP!
Thank you Cait for fighting against the wave of ignorance in this state.
