5. I bet this is one of the Halliburton facilities....

6. OMG read the comments following the story

Here is a prized one:

8. Amy Goodman wrote a column about this yesterday...

sorry, I don't have a link handy- I read it in my local paper, the Santa Cruz Sentinel (which I believe is a McClatchy paper, although I'm not sure, as it's been sold twice in the past 6 mos.)
