This happened about 10km from my place this morning, still helicopters overhead and sirens everywhere, you can smell the burning despite the drizzling rain....

Also, never let grease or oil get near your oxy-acetylene regulators or connectors. A welding shop near here went up a few years ago and that's what they guess probably happened.

I'm really sorry Alice. Another reminder to "please" be careful.
