Re: Coach bus burns to a crisp during Rita evacuation
i think those O2 tanks take 120+ to explode. And I'm sure they did explode, after a fire had started somewhere in/on the bus. I've seen people on O2 smoke and little sparks of FIRE twinkle under their noses. I'm sure in the next feew days we'll learn all about it, repeatedly, on the news.

Re: Coach bus burns to a crisp during Rita evacuation
The bus was owned by some fly-by-night company out of McAllen/Pharr on the Texas-Mexico border. The driver did not have a valid Texas driver's license. He had a Mexican driver's license. It figures. Looks like someone is getting sued big time.
