   Thanks Michael,

   I’d just like to set the record straight regarding the explosion and fires on the Goolge Map. So far it hasn’t been throughly confirmed that dust caused the fire or explosion. Only that dust is present in the work pace where the unfortunate event occurred.

   Historically, in 50% of incidents the cause cannot be fully determined due to the destructive damage destroying the exact cause and ignition points.

   I need everyone’s help on this throughout the nation. If anyone knows of any fire or explosion in your regional area that occurred at a workplace and mention in the news reports that the facility generates dust, then please forward a link of the story to me so I can include it in the Google Map.

   Thanks,

   Dockman
