9/2/05 NOLA Radio Scanner listening thread

[Ms. Clio]

I thought I heard them say they pulled law enforcement from the Convention Center because of the explosion.

[Ms. Clio]

1. It also seemed to be a very quiet night until the explosions

I heard very few reports of crime or violence.

[Ms. Clio]

2. Guy says it's used oil products burning -- nothing toxic

[Ms. Clio]

3. Used oil products that will burn off -- no danger to the public

according to one guy.

[smurfygirl]

4. funny, i heard NG saying it was an unknown chemical

at this point and a cloud is going down river. suddenly my feed went out. had to switch feeds.

[Ms. Clio]

5. I've heard several times it's non-toxic

Listening to a dual feed, but not sure which one--can't tell in WMP.

[smurfygirl]

10. I'm wondering if there are two explosions

sounded like the mobil plant in NO

and another chemical plant in Baton Rouge maybe. I might be wrong about the location.

Do you think there is a possibility these were deliberate to try to get the stuff to burn off rather than spilling into the flood water?

[smurfygirl]

11. a sulfur warehouse is what they said

no worries then

[Ms. Clio]

12. For now --- it's a reminder of what is probably coming

[Usrename]

6. IMPORTANT: Should this have it's own thread?

[Ms. Clio]

7. Very important -- yes, definitely!

[Usrename]

8. was cruising the freepers as it was posted, they don t seem pleased

don't know how to start one, could you help

I got it I think, thanks

[Ms. Clio]

9. Sorry -- good job

[Ms. Clio]

13. Chairman from Murphy Oil needs to be escorted into the city?

[Ms. Clio]

14. What the hell?

[Ms. Clio]

15. And now a justice of the supreme court is coming in to secure some

articles -- (so their escort takes manpower away from other areas, great.)

(What's with all these useless assholes in a disaster area??)

[Ms. Clio]

16. convoy of buses going to Children's Hospital

[Ms. Clio]

17. Well, that's all for now, maybe someone else will pick it up
