Info

This is the most info I could find this early on. It was a lot worse that it says. The last time I tuned in for the news was last night, so this may be outdated.
There was a huge column of smoke, which was spreading over the whole town. There was 3 million pounds of butter melting and burning inside, and they couldn't get inside to hose it down. They said that there was butter pouring out of the east side of the building and making mud :disgust:.

Edit;
here's another site. More info

There was a terrible accident a few years back between Italy and France in a tunnel. A truck started into the tunnel and the engine caught fire. It was hauling a large amount of butter, but didn't know that there were any problems until it got to the middle of the tunnel and the driver noticed the smoke. He made the mistake of stopping and the butter ended up causing a large fire. Half of the drivers in the tunnel couldn't exit due to the truck blocking the tunnel. They all died of smoke inhalation.

They did tests and concluded that if a fire is set near butter, it is almost more dangerous than gasoline because it burns hotter and longer. It doesn't ignite the same way....interesting to say the least.

Butter is wrong, it comes from a cow and cows are abused in the dairy farms!!
Hopefully, this butter fire will save a few cows from abuse :D

I had a dream that I was swimming in a vat of melted butter. I came out all glistening and naked, covered with melted butter.


That is all.

I had a similar dream....only it was that I was covered with that butter substitute crap that they use at the movie theater and rather than coming out glistening, it was too hot and it burned my genitals. :Q

If anything, it will make cow abuse worse! Think of all those bovines who'll have to put in overtime to make up for the loss.
