Maybe, Ike, but 3,000 people did not die.

I was wondering how in the heck 3000 people die from a train wreck.

No, it's the #1 most over-rated rail disaster.

it's amazing the count is so low (somewhere in the 50's seems a little hard to believe)

reports from red cross workers say it leveled houses and apartments within 500yds of the blast. also that there where 500 travelers and employees in the station.

If all of these reports are true, it's a miracle it's not much higher

Why? They were probably hoping the U.S. humanitarian aid package, for the 3000 supposudly killed, would get there before the truth got out. [/B]

fisherman across the chinese border said he saw, heard and felt the blast. "like a nuclear explosion"
