[quote:Anonymous Coward 1357612:MV8xNDYxMTUyXzI0MTAxMzkzX0RBMThBOTQ5] [quote:BRIEF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 924702] Excuse to raise gas prices? [/quote] That or the fact that because of the tree huggers and the EPA, we haven't built a new refinery since the '70's and they are older than fuck now... [/quote] No need for new refineries. In less than 3 years, this Gulf morphing organism, which breaks down human DNA, will have so saturated the Gulf hydrocarbons, that only extremely expensive and closed-unit refineries will be able to filter out the bug. Other countries refineries will also become infected since the organism has escaped the Gulf and is in the world's oceans. Perhaps Japan's oceans will remain free of the morphing disaster since the radioactive water being dumped into the ocean will probably kill the bug in their waters. [/quote]
Original Message
This is suspicous as these plants are 30+ miles apart.
Valero Energy Corp. (VLO), Marathon Oil Corp. (MRO) and BP Plc suffered power outages at their Texas City refineries in Texas, according to Bruce Clawson, director of Texas City Emergency Management.
