    I wouldn't buy into any of that yet, until it's confirmed by a proper looking website, either BBC or RTE, with proper pictures, it has only been reported on strange looking website's.

    Its been all over the news. Bbc also. Did you even look at link or are you just summising? r.

    Maybe its all cgi and special effects eh John??
    So obviously you just cant answer the question, but thanks for your imput, useful as always.

    The link provided looks valid, and now the live coverage has suddenly gone off air!:eek:

    EDIT: Our winds wont be originating from there anytime soon so even if there is something dodgey in the fire it shouldnt effect us, i hope.

    Thanks for the PM. John Icy.

    Ill bear in mind never to 'insult' you again, even though I read through the thread and can not see where I insulted you.

    I rolled my eyes, but thats not an insult.

    John ICY.

    I was totally in the wrong there, and I sincerley apologise for going off on you. I was totally out of order. Something else upset me at same time, and I took it out on you. I realise I did come across as insulting and perhaps a bit of a smart arse too.


    Please excuse my behaviour.

    Sincerely,

    Jacqui.

    Hi John,

    (sorry had to go make dinner.)

    Thanks so much for accepting my apology. I appreciate your decency.

    If you are ever near Lucan, let me buy you a coffee and a cream cake :)

    Jacqui

    Love the birds against the black smoke pic.

  • Registered Users Posts: 57 ✭✭NoodleMc


    No doubt those birds will be dropping out of the sky soon! :O

    heres something else creepy :) ever hear of that web bot project? load of bull, but however, they did say this last year allegedly :)




    The data sets are now able, due to the far side of the longer term values now extending into 2013, to offer some indications as to the [2012 problem(s)]. It would seem as though the [squeeze] aspect/attribute set is a very key element here. The data sets are indicating that the [galactic core magnetic field] is [squeezing] our [solar system] and everything in it. As we progress further toward the [hunab ku (alignment with galactic center on Dec. 21. 2012], the [squeeze] will become even more severe, which is indicated to cause all manner of problems from [increased magma activity], to [dampened/crushed sun] to a wide range of other [magnetic pressure vessel effects] including [headaches], and [sudden death], and [mass deaths (animals, specifically birds and sea life)]. This last is indicated to include [humans], but unlike the [dead flocks], the [humans] will be [dying] in [disparate] areas, so it will take a while to reconcile the [death rate increase] to the same cause as the [devastation (of) bird life].

    :eek: ;)

    Does anyone know what caused the fire???

    Havent heard anything about what caused it, Tony. Could be they need the fire to die down more, before they can get in and find more evidence.

    No known cause yet but they say this

    "An investigation into the cause of the blaze is now under way. Civil engineer Jan te Riele told the Financieele Dagblad: 'Disasters usually occur because of mistakes in the production process or the handling of substances.'"
