Well, that's kind of crappy...

Sad news out of Tennessee this afternoon, where two people who started their day like they do every day, are now more than likely not going home to their families ever again.

2 workers missing after US wastewater treatment plant spills millions of gallons of sewage

My initial take on this was going to be to look at the humor of the situation...the horror of being killed by a 2 million gallon Sewage Tsunami...but instead I keep focusing on the two people missing.  Totally unprecedented accidents like this are why I give my wife a kiss every morning...you just never know what can go wrong. 

Looking at it another way...the potential environmental/human impact from dumping 2-3 Million gallons of sewage into a mountain stream is ORDERS of MAGNITUDE worse than any damage that could be caused by dumping 3 million gallons of radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean.

Saying prayers, and hoping that the families involved get quick resolution.
