    Holy crap, I'm trying to get more information on it and I'm coming up short, even BBC isn't fully informed. Tianjin and all their residents must be horrified. Shipping container? Gas or oil? WHAT IS IT? I need to know because China is one of the places we've considered moving to in a while.

      CNN is talking about other things...I guess they don't have all the facts yet. I only hope it wasn't something intentional that caused this.

        Me too, China is usually pretty on top of their game, this surprises me. I hope that everyone gets the care they need. We don't even know how many people were killed, or injured, only that 'hundreds' were admitted to the hospital.

          The mushroom cloud is not just from Nuclear blast,it is an effect of a MAJOR blast. It comes from dirt and Debris sucked up into the sky by the blast if large enough.

                China has had problems from the desire to expand very quickly. An example is the "Ghost cities"

                This explosion may or may not have something to do with over doing things with little oversight.

                  Looks like it started in a hazardous chem area. Someone may have been taking shortcuts with their safety procedures.
                  life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                  Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

                  "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                  John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

                  "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

                        Chinese companies are famous for that. "Silver" jewelry contaminated with lead or cadmium, dog beef jerky treats that kill dogs, cat food (made for Purina) that killed cats, drywall contaminated with sulfur, wood flooring contaminated with formaldehyde, "organic" foods contaminated with PCBs, berries sold to Australia grown in contaminated soil, the list goes on...

                        I am sorry for the citizens of China, but the truth is:

                        Buy nothing exported from China, unless you want to take the risk. There is no quality control and no over site. That is why they can undersell every other country.

                            I don't know enough about the incident to comment, but when it comes to production, Corbin and Anu are right on the money.

                            Buy nothing exported from China*, unless you want to take the risk. There is no quality control and no over site. That is why they can undersell every other country.

                              Problem began when China realized that Capitalism makes a lot of money,and even better money if you have no controls period.
