I bet whoever opened the building gets in trouble.

"And the soul that turneth after other internet boards, and after reddit, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people."

Thus sayeth the Lord, thus sayeth CZ.

Has Judic weighed in on it?

Where is the story? I have scrolled through and can't see it. I'm not reading every comment, don't usually go to reddit - is there a how-to-find button somewhere - to find a link without reading the whole string?

Sorry for my general cluelessness.

Here is a link directly to the ABC news story:

https://abc13.com/massive-explosion-rocks-nw-houston-blast-felt-for-miles/5875224/

Here's the appropriate verbiage:

"As a result of the blast, at least 48 people were directed to a temporary shelter at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Shadowdale Drive, according to the Houston Fire Department.

"An overnight shelter was later set up at the Fairbanks United Methodist Church at 14210 Aston St."

Re: A story of a ward chapel being opened to ‘survivors’

Thanks EOD. Sorry I didn't just look it up myself.

I was particularly interested in the mention of a shelter at an LDS church. I had heard that people aren't allowed to stay overnight in LDS buildings. Maybe the "temporary shelter" was during the day and that's why another church set up the "overnight shelter".

Anyway, awful situation. How scary and tragic.
