What is REALLY burning in NYC today?

The official story is that the reason the entire village area is filled with smoke is because of a fire on the 5th floor of a parking garage in Chelsea. I don't buy this for many reasons:

1. I live over 2 miles from there and the smoke was giving me a bad sore throat when I woke up a little before 8 this morning. (And working literally 1 block from the fire of course doesn't help). Would a garage fire normally have this effect over 2 miles away? Don't think so. WTC didn't (was 4 miles from that but I think you get the difference in scale).

2. The fire started before 7:30AM yet it was still burning late this afternoon. How long does it take to put out a garage fire? If it DOES take that long, how was the # of fire department vehicles responding FAR LESS than I see EVERY FVCKING NIGHT used in the stupid terror drills going through the battery tunnel?

3. It doesn't smell of anything you would expect in a garage full of cars. No smell of gas even though the firefighters were withdrawn due to "exploding gas tanks", no smell of burning tires, burning plastics/vinyl, etc. Instead it has the distinct smell of trees burning. Specifically it smells exactly the same as south Florida does when the everglades burn each winter. This tells me the material being burned is plant based, like most toxins. New chemical weapons testing perhaps?

4. There is actually more smoke at ground level than there was on 9/11. Enough that there were trains skipping stations 3 blocks away for awhile.

Why don't you go check it out? If you get shot at, it means that its more than a parking garage fire. :)

1. Depends on what is being burned, and where the wind is going.

2. If the fire isn't going anywhere and is just smoldering, you don't need the entire fire department onsite.

3. Do they commonly test chemical weapons in the middle of New York in parking garages? That seems like a really strange place to do that.

4. Have you heard of wind?

I will start a web site to chronicle the cover-up. I will call it THE UNVARNISHED TRUTH. It will feature a HUGE Gothic font, blood red on black. I will be uncompromising and militant about this. I will print and sell bumper stickers and pins. And I will fervently hope that it wasn't just a fire in a varnish warehouse.

here in tx when the farmers burn their fields the smoke makes the sun all golden, and tears your throat to hell, even if you are 5, 6, or 7 miles away.
