Wonder where the OP will end up moving to ? best wishes to him and hope he finds happiness. regards worgeordie -

BREAKING NEWS School Bus Fire Claims Multiple Lives and Injures Young Students in Rangsit
No - but I've seen photos of the bus with LPG / LNG tanks. There were also reports that the front left wheel had a blowout - this much seems correct. There were reports of an impact with a 'bridge' or one of the over-pass columns... this is not true, videos of the area show no possible impact point. Once a fire broke out - drive escaped leaving the kids in the van. It was reported in Thai media that the teachers escaped (I'm guessing via the drivers door). It was reported the main door would not open (kids were found piled up at the door). There is a video with people / early 'arrivers at the scene' with a fire-extinguisher... 20/20 hindsight suggests they should have used the extinguisher to smash the bus windows for the kids to escape. One thing for sure - Driver doing a running - he needs to be burned a stake. Teachers escaping before the kids (if true) - need to be burned a stake. and of course.... any future legislation needs to be enforced really this time - No wooden bus frames - No LNG / LGV public vehicles - All such vehicles need a yearly MOT for road worthiness (tyres breaks etc). So very very tragic - but as many issues in such events, so many issues to address. The problem with pointinout out such issues before something happens is we are accused of being a 'crazed paranoid whakjob' or a trouble maker... Within the week, we'll have a another bus rolling down a ravine. A truck taking out a line of cars due to brake failure. A pick-up crossing the median and having a head on collision with an oncoming family vehicle. An HGV without lighting doing a U-turn in the pitch dark and getting hit by a speeding vehicle. A speed boat island hopping flipping over and occupants drowning. Roof collapse (somewhere in a large building) A crane collapse at some construction site. Part of the Rama II over-pass collapsing. Dog (most likley a 'pittie') killing its owner or guest. One mate shooting another during a drunk argument they can't remember. -

It's so sad that people seem to think they are so much better by making assumptions about an incident when there is no accident report or any evidence to support that opion a..it's just an opportunity for bigotry and racism. In fact it is THEY who are so inadequate -

Harris holds 7-point lead over Trump in national survey
Looks bad for Trump: Early data from the Pennsylvania secretary of state's office shows Republicans trailing Democrats — by a wide margin — in requesting mail ballots. As of Monday, Pennsylvania Democrats had requested about 881,000 mail ballots. Republicans had requested just 373,000 (only about a quarter of the total mail ballots requested). And: Republicans are starting to raise alarms about Trump’s ground game Lying can only fool a limited number of voters. To win, Trump needs to appeal to independents, but his constant lies turn them off. -

It's a civil servant uniform like teachers and administrative officers wear. The higher the rank the more the bling bling and the more golden. If you find it disgusting, get used to it, it's Thailand. They love uniforms, badges, stars and stripes and whatever. -

Thai Actress’s Brother Refuses Settlement with Russian Attacker
It does show a young Thai man cowering in submission just before the Russian beat the crap out of him. Where is the evidence that the Thai deserved to be beaten up? Hardly self defence was it. So what other excuse was there? I have used the words Thai and Russian because that was the nationalities of the two involved, Where is the racism? -

It's not the conversion to LPG that you might think of. It's the often seen NGV (natural gas) conversion. The cylinders have a pressure of more than 200 bar (2900 psi). Many big trucks drive with a staple of these. One time in the video there is a bang like an explosion probably from one of these cylinders. -

Hurricane heinous acts
I could understand if they were looting for food or cash. Something of value. Looting Trump shlock reminds me of Einstein's aphorism about the universe, and human stupidity.- 1
