  1. Please accept my deepest sympathy for your losses, I cannot imagine a tragedy of such heart break! I remember reading about these events a long time ago and could hardly believe the carnage. Many children died from sleeping on the floor on mats, while some others were on higher bed frames which kept them from inhaling gas. When I was a kid, a natural gas explosion blew our school, on the very next street, to smithereens. It literally created a sound wave that actually knocked us out of bed. We had zero ability to know what to do! Our adults were afraid it was a nuclear bomb since we were in the middle of the 1960s cold war....everything so dramatic just wipes your brain, you keep trying to understand what's going on, while being terrified and having so idea what to do. The nuclear age films that told us to cover our heads and get under a table, etc., etc., was completely ludicrous since by the time you try that, its over....one minute you can be great, the next second, everything is just...gone.
