A tornado wound its way through an oil workers man camp Monday - TopicsExpress

A tornado wound its way through an oil workers man camp Monday night, pulverizing 15 trailers in the western North Dakota oil patch along U.S. Highway 85. And while it is very good news, indeed, that all made it out of man camp safe and no injuries have been reported, still, its stories like these that make one wonder how horrible it would be, what kind of disaster could be unleashed should a tornado devastate any of the gas or oil pipelines stretching across the country, should they ravage any of the numerous, numerous fracking operations pocking the country? Everyone can be thankful that the oil workers living in the camp were able to flee when the tornado warning was sounded -- thats worth lingering on a moment and appreciating -- but it also instigates one recurring thought -- pipelines, wells and fracking sites cant flee.
