Writer: Amazing how many of these pipeline explosions occur

David Smith says he can't believe Federal government has taken a bigger role in assuring disasters like the Knifley Pipeline explosion don't happen as often

David Smith writes:
Ed, after searching for videos of this explosion on you tube I am amazed at how many times this has occurred. I can't believe the federal government hasn't taken a bigger role in assuring this doesn't happen as often, or to minimize the damage. I am by far no engineer but it seems they could fit these lines with an emergency shut off that would engage if a sudden drop in pressure should occur. Perhaps we should all be on the phone to our representatives and demand action be taken. I feel everyone was in a way very lucky this time. This may not be the case next time. Thanks for allowing me to vent. - David Smith

Letter: Yosemite difficult, too

Mary Keltner writes:
Be sure to add "Yosemite" to the test. Not long after moving here (Can it really be 22 years ago?), my husband James Howard Keltner took me for a long drive encompassing northern Adair and parts of Casey county. At one point we drove through the Yosemite area, which I, as a Yankee transplant, pronounced the same way you would Yosemite as in the California national park. James Howard thought my pronunciation was hysterical, and teased me about it for years. I have since learned my lesson... to the point that I have mispronounced the name of Yosemite Park!

Alan W. Reed: Open letter - Knifley Pipeline Exposion

Adair County School Superintendent Alan Reed was awakened by the Knifley Pipeline explosion this morning and was one of the earliest to arrive at the scene. He was allowed access to restricted areas because of his position and the need to determine whether the situation would affect pupil transportation. Despite the enormity of the event, the manner in which First Responders handled the situation left him impressed with their professionalism and capacity to cope with a situation they had trained for and had hoped would never come. He details the experience in this open letter, shared with local media, including CM.

To the Adair County School District Parents and Students

Early this morning, around 1:30amCT, residents of the Knifley Community were awakened by a violent explosion. The explosion could be heard and felt as far away as Campbellsville and Columbia, each around 10 miles away. Flames leapt 400 or more feet into the air as a 36 inch gas main ruptured, and rocks and debris made passage across part of KY 76 impassable. By a little after 2amCT, I was on the scene, as was David Jones, our Transportation Director.

Thanks, Larry Walker - I'm not remembering he event. It may have happened after I first became editor of the Edmonton Herald-News in September of 1965, but I don't remember it. We'll try to get the story though. And maybe one of our readers will remember the event. - Ed Waggener
