If the relief valves were incorrectly sized, or if maintenance was lacking, they might have failed to open. Or, if the company changed flow rates or something else critical without revisiting the design of the safety equipment - they may have been correct 15 years ago, not so much now.
Yes. Not to mention alarms and probably other failsafe devices. Relief valves are the last resort thing to open after other stuff goes wrong, and they’re very reliable - I’d be willing to bet that you’re looking at a 1 in 1,000,000 chance of random failure of multiple safeties here.

My work computer won’t let me have it, and it sucks. And all of the websites still occasionally ask me to whitelist them, even though I can see the fucking ads in the background behind the popup.
Metzger said the only planet more complex than Pluto is Earth.
One of the recent ones let you play in junior league in Canada as part of career mode, but I don’t remember which one. I think you could choose those teams in play now as well.
Great article, and a perspective that is badly needed. I certainly never thought about from this angle (but I’m white, so....). I oppose all the Bernie-desired changes, especially pushing for more caucuses, which are pretty much just Privilege Parties if you ask me.
“Running out of money” seems to be a common refrain for just about every Superfund site.
Practically all of NW Indiana should be a Superfund site, what with the closed down steam mills, refineries, chemical plants, and Trump casino in Gary.
