Sikhed (OP) User ID: 5898996 United States 04/05/2018 05:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very interesting... wonder what they know. Obviously something is up. Could be a minor thing or something more worrying. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16183260 Bump! I don't think it's because of the expected rise in fuel prices. Since when does any government agency try to save taxpayers money? :doom360: |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 67285741 United States 04/05/2018 05:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Across the highway from my employer is a commercial fueling station. Several local government agencies use the place to fuel their equipment regularly. Quoting: Sikhed Yesterday, I noticed a line of school buses filling up during the day. All of them. About 24. This was after dropping off the kids at school, not on Sundays like they usually do. And never all the buses at once. Today it was the city and county vehicles. All of them. They were filling up the trucks and the backhoes, loaders, that were being pulled on trailers. And jobsite fuel trailers too. A big line of them. Was going to post this right after work, and on my way home I see a loaded military fuel tanker, no doubt on its way to the local National Guard armory nearby. What's going on? Anyone know? Syria is about to blow, days |

As a former blue collar worker for the government, surely the grunts don't know. Same with their foremen. Unless it's an unlawful order, you just do what you're told. Gonna text my son. He works private security at the Port of Portland navigation office. :doom360: |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 932041 United States 04/05/2018 06:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My guess is that the caravan from Honduras will be flown in overnight under the cover of darkness, and may already have been flown in to Canada near the border. They now need the vehicles to transport them across Washington state to temporary facilities until they are given more permanent housing. If kids in your district are on Spring Break, the school buses provide a good cover. There were reports of similar tactics used during the "Syrian refugee crisis," where they were reportedly flown in on UPS flights and boarded onto various guarded bus transports. There was video showing these buses moving these people into the country in the middle of the night to avoid the cameras and eyes of protestors trying to stop them from coming in. Can't find those videos anymore, however, as they appear to have all been removed from YouTube. |

A double tanker was refilling the underground tanks at the gov't refueling station yesterday, otherwise everything seems normal. Don't know what that was all about... :doom360: |

When cold then coal for utilities. Chlorine inventory is typically two weeks max so that can shut a city down. |
