Guest Thomas Keske Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 DESCENDING INTO THE INCENDIARY Be patient, they tell you. It is so difficult to be rational, to be calm when one's hair is on fire, when the need to roll oneself on the carpet seems to trump all other considerations of appearances or the slanderous opinions of onlookers. Everything seems so tranquil when you take a walk by the Old School. How did the fire start? With nonstandard cabling, wound by virgins with sensitive fingers on a cardboard spool? Perhaps the fires start leaping because sparked by unfair labeling. I submit that the girlfriends who kissed at the Covenant Academy sleepover party did not violate the school's discipline code of officially mandated revulsion, because the rules do not specifically state that same-sex kissing is grounds for expulsion. The police said if anyone was killed I should be held responsible and hanged. I replied calmly that I would consider it an honor to be legally charged with the absurdly redundant offense of simply giving offense, and to be hanged for language. I am guilty as charged, electrically speaking, of dramatic static, for creating a long trail of scorched carpets and molten plastic. Police raided the Power Plant, issuing three hundred-fifty misdemeanor citations, thereby creating for themselves the dangerous illusion that they were in complete control of the situation. Later, in Hobart, I received an OHMS letter, informing me that I had been selected by ballot for coal mining as an alternative to military service. The underground fires have been burning there since 1946, since the end of the war, self-sustained by gases like methane and hydrogen. When will our society grow up and realize that preaching of hellfire is merely inflammatory rhetoric? Church burnings are surely God's method of payback for incendiary mythology and blood libels concerning the burning of Sodom and Gomorrah. The folks who preach such things are the last to acknowledge the righteousness of the burnings of Atlanta and Richmond, or Sherman's fiery March to the Sea. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ..

Its walls were stained with soot, and a rank bed was in one corner. What happened I asked, you like it he queried with obvious pride, great functionality he said, coffee he asked and paused to light the fire. Instantly the room filled with choking smoke, Chimney I asked making for the doorway. Theodore grunted something about next week, and time pressure and management changing their mind. How is Mrs Theodore I asked. Instead he took me on a tour, look he said here is the furnace. A 10 meter unfenced deep hole filled with rancid looking water greeted me. In the water a rusting furnace sat. oh I asked so you have hot water then, yes he replied climbing a large tumbled pile of builders bricks. Over here.

However a short time latter I received yet another OHMS letter this informed me I had been SELECTED by BALLOT for Coal Mining after training in Yorkshire. The only grounds of appeal were MEDICAL, this after passing A1 fit for the Royal Marines however I appealed as an "Acute Claustrophobic", at the appeal I met 24 other Acute Claustrophobic's and we all got the same answer "Bad luck lad you are in the Mines The then Minister of Labour Mr Ernest Bevin was set the task of finding 50,000 workers to replace the missing miners who were valuable where they were now doing their bit, his first attempt was to contact all Headmasters of Senior Schools to enlist their help in persuading the boys to go Coalmining instead of joining the military, he had of course NOT A HOPE IN HELL, lads saw nothing attractive about that prospect, his PA then came up with the lottery idea so into his Bowler Hat went numbers 0 to 9 and lo and behold out came 0 and 9 as the first groups to be called, the only lottery I have ever won. ------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.msha.gov/fatals/2002/fairfax/nftl02fairfax.htm The Fairfax Mining Co., Inc., #3 Mine, I. D. 46-08633, is located ten miles west of Clarksburg, in Harrison County, West Virginia. The mine is accessed by 5 drift openings from a box- cut into the Pittsburgh coal seam, which averages 55 inches in thickness. A single blowing mine fan provided 86,700 cubic feet of air per minute at the drift opening to the main intake air course. The mine liberated 22,395 cubic feet of methane in a 24- hour period. Coal was produced by advancing entries with remote- controlled, scrubber-equipped, continuous mining machines. Employment was provided for 67 underground and 6 surface employees. The mine operated three shifts per day, five days per week, producing 2,500 tons of raw coal daily from two continuous mining machine units. Coal production was primarily achieved on day and afternoon shifts. Maintenance crews were scheduled on midnight shifts, which occasionally engage in limited coal production. At approximately 9:20 a.m., the section conveyor belts stopped. Donald Nickels, Chief Maintenance Foreman, and Sean Fletcher, Roof Bolter Operator, entered the mine to check the belts and found that the first two belt conveyor flights were still operating. However, the third flight (#1-3NW Belt) had stopped. Each time they reset the control circuit and started the #1 3NW Belt, the belt slippage protective device tripped, stopping the drive motor. Donald Nickels noticed spillage at this belt drive and assigned Sean Fletcher to clean the drive area with a water hose. Donald Nickels intended to check for problems at the #1-3NW Belt tailpiece. However, he smelled smoke as soon as he entered the track entry, which he reported by mine phone to Johnny Nickels, Mine Superintendent. Donald Nickels and Sean Fletcher then entered the adjacent primary escapeway and walked to the surface. Meanwhile, Johnny Nickels had radioed Paul Smith, Surface Electrician, and asked him to enter the mine and open the haulage airlock doors, located near the drift openings, to help clear smoke from the track entry. However, Smith did not have a self-contained self-rescuer (SCSR) and could not enter the mine. Bill Currence, who was still at the 1 West E Section mine phone, overheard Smith tell Johnny Nickels that smoke was coming out the track haulage airlock doors. However, Currence was still unable to reply to persons on the surface. He then obtained a track bus and rode outby to assist in locating the problem, accompanied by Craig Currence, General Laborer. Johnny Nickels checked the fire detection system control box in the maintenance foremen's office, which was showing a line short alarm, as indicated by a light (Line Short Lamp) on the panel cover (no audible signal was provided for this type of alarm). Outside the mine office Johnny Nickels met Richard Herndon, MSHA Coal Mine Inspector, who had finished testing the brakes on the front end loader for the ongoing Safety and Health Inspection. After being informed of the situation, Herndon issued a verbal K- Order and informed Nickels that the miners need to be evacuated from the mine. Herndon accompanied Johnny Nickels into the box cut, where they observed smoke flowing out of the belt entry drift opening. Johnny Nickels tried again to order an evacuation over the mine phone, but he received no response from the sections. Line monitors were connected at the end of each branch network cable (near each section loading point), which paralleled the branch cables within the network circuit. The internal resistors of each line monitor were adjusted so that the total network resistance measured at the Control Panel equaled 15,000 ohms. During normal operating conditions, the line monitors permitted a small current to flow through the network so that the Control Panel's monitoring circuit could determine the system's ability to detect a fire. For example, when an open circuit condition occurred, the current flow should have dropped to zero and the Control Panel's line monitor meter would display a zero indication (See Appendix B, Figure #6). The malfunction of heat sensors closest to the fire origin could have also resulted in delayed actuation of the Fire Suppression System. However, sufficient evidence was not found to confirm or rule out this possibility, since the sensors were destroyed by the fire. If a sensor had malfunctioned and the fire continued to intensify, tests indicated that the insulation on the network conductors would have melted at temperatures between 365 degrees F to 369 degrees F ------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.wvculture.org/hiStory/minewars.html As the intimidation by mine guards increased, national labor leaders, including Mary Harris "Mother" Jones, began arriving on the scene. Jones, a native of Ireland, was already a major force in the American labor movement before first coming to West Virginia during the 1897 strikes. Although she reported the year of her birth as 1830, recent research indicates she was probably born in 1845. As a leader of the UMWA's efforts to organize the state, Jones became known for her fiery (and often obscene) verbal attacks on coal operators and politicians. Families of miners who had joined the union were evicted from their company-owned houses. The town's chief of police, Sid Hatfield, encouraged Matewan residents to arm themselves. Gunfire erupted when Albert and Lee Felts attempted to arrest Hatfield. At the end of the battle, seven detectives and four townspeople lay dead, including Mayor C. C. Testerman. Shortly thereafter, Hatfield married Testerman's widow, Jessie, prompting speculation that Hatfield himself had shot the mayor. Non-union mines were dynamited miners' tent colonies were attacked, and there were numerous deaths on both sides of the cause. ------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.csiro.au/files/mediarelease/mr2003/Coalfire.htm A CSIRO scientist is on his way to the United States to help extinguish an underground coal fire burning for more than 10 weeks. The coal seam fire has been burning 200m underground at the Loveridge Mine in West Virginia since January 7 and all attempts to extinguish it the have failed. CSIRO Exploration and Mining project leader Patrick Glynn said the GAG had been operating successfully in Queensland since 1998. "In 2000 it was used to extinguish a fire in the Blair Athol mine in Queensland that had been burning since 1946," says Mr Glynn. "These sorts of fires can burn for that long because once established, even if it uses up most of the available oxygen in the mine, the fire itself releases other gases like methane and eventually hydrogen that can make it almost self-sustaining," Mr Glynn said. ------------------------------------------------------------------ http://womenshistory.about.com/library/etext/mj/bl_mj27.htm The Autobiography of Mother Jones Chapter XXVII: Progress in Spite of Leaders Other strikes come to my mind, strikes of less fire and flame and hence attracting less national notice. The papers proclaimed to stockholders and investors that there was peace, and there was no peace. The garment workers struck and won. In Roosevelt, New Jersey, the workingmen in the fertilizing plant of Williams and Clark struck. Two strikers were shot dead -- shot in the back by the hired gunmen. The guards were arraigned, let out on bail, and reported back on the job. The strikers were assembled in a vacant lot. Guards shot into their midst, firing low and filling the legs of the workers with bullets. "Mother," the strikers wrote to me, "come help us with our women." I went. "Women," said I, "see that your husbands use no fire arms or violence no matter what the provocation. Don't let your husbands scab. Help them stand firm and above all keep them from the saloons. No strike was ever won that did not have the support of the womenfolk." I spoke to a mass meeting of carmen's wives and we certainly had those women fighting like wildcats. They threatened me with jail and I told the police I could raise as much hell in jail as out. The police said if anyone was killed I should be held responsible and hanged. "If they want to hang me, let them," I said. "And on the scaffold I will shout 'Freedom for the working class!' And when I meet God Almighty I will tell him to damn my accusers and the accusers of the working class, the people who tend and develop and beautify His world." ------------------------------------------------------------------ 40.

"It sounded almost like a firecracker," Clewer told Australian radio Friday. Employees, unsure of the cause of the mysterious burning smell, telephoned firefighters who evacuated the building. "There were several scorch marks in the carpet, and we could hear a cracking noise -- a bit like a whip -- both inside and outside the building," said fire official Henry Barton. Firefighters cut electricity to the building thinking the burns might have been caused by a power surge. David Gosden, a senior lecturer in electrical engineering at Sydney University, told Reuters that for a static electricity charge to ignite a carpet, conditions had to be perfect. ------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.skylighter.com/mall/ignition.asp Visco fuse, flying fish fuse, time fuse, quickmatch, sticky match, electric matches and other fireworks ignition supplies are shown in two sections below: Flame Ignition Supplies and Electric Ignition Supplies.

His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized for setting the little red-head girl's hair on fire; his pen-pal is missing, his pianist friend is abused by a homophobic quarterback - these characters aren't found in a comic strip, and are not much help to America's favorite blockhead.
