Nasty toxic spill in DuBois, PA

[shilala]

A tractor trailer turned over coming off I-80 in DuBois, PA. Roads are closed for a one mile radius.
School is cancelled.
I'm waiting to see how long it takes until the story hits the web. It's some sort of chlorine compound, but I haven't heard the details yet.

we had a truck spill hydrochloric acid on the edge of campus on tuesday right in front of one of the student commuter lots... people couldn't get to their cars to leave school until after 10pm. sucks for them

No pics. I'm still looking for the story on the web. I haven't been able to find anything yet.
I guess it happened at 10:30 last night.
The toxic cloud may explain this 40 pound banjo-shaped growth coming out of my ass.

It's his favorite town. Ba-HAaaaaaaa.
I can't believe it's taken this long for someone to dig that joke up

My wife just tried to get to work and the fire departments are everywhere. They turned her around and she had to go the back way to work. She called to ask how she should try to get there.
She works right next door to the hospital, so I sent her the back way and they haven't blocked the route to the hospital.
I'm glad. I think I should have someone look at this banjo thing.

It seems they don't often report accidents these days. Last week, there was a big accident on the Mass pike which closed the westbound side for a few hours and the eastbound side all night. I checked different sources for a few days and found nothing. I would think though that a chemical spill would be more likely to be reported.

gah.. the news corp. in this country.... Like going to the university bookstore and paying $1.50 for a floppy. Just a worthless deal. I wish I had stolen that disk last night.

That's only a few hours from here, between State College and Pittsburgh, correct?

I used to love to deer hunt up there.. That is near Elk county correct?
