    Other than regularly beating them in basketball games, I never thought much about Derp Park.

    Moved away from laporte/shoreacres last year. It was a good decision.

    This for sure is going to affect our health in some shape or form. No way this much chemical smoke covers the entire city and no human is affected by it. They are not going to set off panic so everything will be downplayed until folks move on. Last thing we need is 1000s lining up at the ER.

    We are expecting companies to be moral and have good ethics.
    I mean just think for how long volkswagen and other diesel manufacturers have been polluting our air..and they only paid a fine because they got caught.

    Amazon ad promoting "Deer Park spring water" is a nice touch, LOL.

    With the successful programming of wage earners to believe clear air/environment is a liberal vs conservative political issue (regulations = COMMUNIST) - is there any hope for improvement for safety standards? Is it naive of me to to hope we can improve things?

    I'm okay with that if it results in gigantic tasty crawfish.

    I’m being told by friends who work in the area at other plants to stay away from that side of town for now.

    Is the deer park still there or did it burn up?

    Our new county Judge is awful. She's obviously in way over her head.
