Even if there was an attempt to contaminate a tank and waste some UC money, the disaster was only possible (and inevitable) because of all the safety corners they'd cut to save a buck.

Mistle posted:China is notorious for making things similar but not quite the same. And cheap imports will blatantly skirt trademarks/brands/whatever they can to make a sale. Really, the market is caveat emptor personified. That reminds me of a note I saw on a job sheet for a (scheduled) gas meter replacement the other day: "Leak on outlet, wadded off already and customer knew she had leaks" Who the gently caress knows they have a leak and just... lives with it?

They breed them special up there. I process job orders from several states and every batch from Queensland has some stupid gently caress-up in it that I have to fix for them before I can do my own job. Queensland produces more problems than all the other states put together.

bend posted:honestly the easiest solution is to build up the road and make it a flat crossing, not an overpass. Admittedly that probably brings in all sorts of traffic control and timing issues, and costs more than dragging trucks out from under the bridge and fining the idiot driving though, but it is more or less a one off cost if you were really determined to solve it. But then you get idiots stopping their trucks across the tracks.

Collateral Damage posted:The "funny house" at the Stockholm amusement park has moving stairs like that leading up to the entrance. They're really simple when you just follow the rhythm, but it's amusing to watch people gently caress it up. Please tell me there's more footage like this. It slays me the way he finally gets one transfer right, only to immediately jump back on to the now-descending step.

flosofl posted:I think that's your only choice. PVC does nothing either, IIRC. So it does: quote:Permeation tests showed that several types of disposable latex or polyvinyl chloride gloves (typically, about 0.1 mm thick), commonly used in most laboratories and clinical settings, had high and maximal rates of permeation by dimethylmercury within 15 seconds. The American Occupational Safety and Health Administration advises handling dimethylmercury with highly resistant laminated gloves with an additional pair of abrasion-resistant gloves worn over the laminate pair, and also recommends using a face shield and working in a fume hood. I'd recommend not handling it at all.

Wittenoom is just all sorts of hosed up. Not only did the company know that it was incredibly dangerous, the mine wasn't even profitable*. As far as I can tell, it was kept open mainly as an excuse to engage in moustache-twirling. * "For most of the years CSR mined asbestos, the operation lost money. It struggled into profit for the five years from 1956, and then only by making its workforce work two and even three shifts a day. When the mine closed it had an accumulated debt of around $2.5 million."
