2. if you have them all handy, could you post them please?

I have a reason, which is to use them in a debate on a different site. Some rw idiot doesn't think my friends and I should be fighting a crystal geyser water plant in Northern California.

4. I did a Bing search through 6 pages and found 4 gasline explosions in Marshall Co. since 2010.

There are probably more; but most of the pages seem to be concentrating on the most recent explosion.

After searching through 5 or 6 pages, I found a link to a Wikipedia article containing a list of pipeline accidents all over the United States in the 21st century. Perhaps you can find what you're look for in there.

If, however, you'd like to know the dates of the Marshall County pipeline explosions I did find before my ancient olde eyes grew tired of looking, they are as follows:
6-7-2010 (7 workers injured) 7-23-2010, 9-21-2013, & 4-5-2014.

8. no, I don't... but the firefighter in the video claimed that.

and I would presume that he knows... but that number seems excessive.

6. That's what I, too, understood the report to say. I'd check it out again . . .

. . . but I'm about to shut this contraption down for a while . . . sleep badly needed.

TransCanada Pipeline Explodes in West Virginia

A newly installed TransCanada natural gas pipeline exploded early Thursday in the remote Nixon Ridge area of Marshall County in West Virginia.

No injuries were reported but flames and smoke from the blast could be seen as far as 20 miles away, residents told local media. Area police told CBS News the fire was "very large—if you can see it from your house, evacuate."
