Everyone is to stay inside, stay off the phones, seal all doors and windows etc. It's REALLY bad, the crude oil is burning after several explosions at the oil refinery and it's destroying air quality in the entire bay area, making everything smell like plastic and other toxit shit.

Another excuse to charge us even more for gasoline I am sure. Makes me glad I live out in the boonies.

Good luck sgreger. Hopefully they can get it under control soon.

On the real though buy your gas TONIGHT, you know that shit is going to skyrocket after this. It's funny because we have 3 of the largest oil refineries in the bay area and yet gas more expensive here than almost anywhere else in the US.

Lol yah it's not smoggy enough around here to be LA quite yet, maybe if the wind picks up a little.
