A toxic sludge reservoir burst, cause unknown

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20101007/ap_on_he_me/eu_hungary_sludge_flood

Now it's being reported the disaster was caused by "human error" and that it is slightly radioactive...its dust can cause lung cancer.

Ask yourself, how can a dam this thick fail by "human error"? This may have been caused by earth movement.

  • That company needs to reimburse those people for their losses. If I were those victims, I would be suing!
  • This is google earth, before the event showing the sludge reservoir.

  • This shows the height of the slug at it worst when it traveled through this town.


  • This event has hit close to home. At a recent meeting of my Hungarian Club, it was learned that one of our members here in Ohio, had a relative who was killed in the run-off. Seems the sludge was like a mini tidal wave of about 10-12 feet high.. and those people were just in the wrong place at certainly the wrong time..or maybe it was just 'their time'...
  • Satellite survilance showed what happened, but the public will not be told. The world we live in.
  • By the looks of it, it definitely looks like the damn just gave in.
    This is toxic waste and probably just ate its way through.
    G-d bless those who have to suffer through this tragic.
  • I don't know, Morris, what human error could have led to this. Seems like a lame excuse.
  • Could this have been caused by a sinkhole, that got filled by the sludge. It seem that the section was sliced, like when slicing a load of bread. Maybe a sinkhole open, this part of the reservoir fell straight down and then the sinkhole got filled by the sludge. I can not image this being human error and then what would the error have been?

  • Yes, this type of situation will be happening more and more. I would worry about radiation or toxicity if anywhere near a facility like this.
  • The whole situation with this sludge thing bursting is disgusting. Why are corporations allowed to accumulate such large quantities of toxins in a large man made lake such as this? This is nuts! And then on the news the other day, they showed a map of the united states and had dots as to where similar sludge entrapments were located. I can only imagine when the earth begins to move more and more, more of these hideous toxic lakes will burst open, ruining people's lives.
