A semi filled with televisions caught fire today in downtown Los Angeles. From the pictures on the news this looks like these were all scraped TV's. The fire is going to cause a major traffic problem locally, as it happen on a major freeway (Interstate 10) right in the center of the city. All ready calling it a hazmat accident that will effect freeway for at least the next 24 hours. Glad I don't have any reason to go into the city today!

Dang under an over pass too. That may cause structural damage.
Smelting. You're doing it wrong.

I think they were on their way to Liverpool, New York.

Well the good news, there's no structure damage to the freeway and overpass. They expect to open freeway in a couple of hours, another good job by Los Angles Fireman. The fireman in Southern Cal. are perhaps the best first res-ponders in the world. In just about every major disaster, no matter where it is at, members of LA fire department are sent.

The only thing that would stop that from working is the no smoking sign inside of the cab
