Which other one? That big explosion over in Hanover Township or when all the old mills over by the George Taylor House burnt down?
It was sorta down river, opposite side, of our plant, maybe 1/2 mile. I remember looking over there the next day. All I could see was a hole in the ground with the rebar arched outward. They used to store some kinda chemicals in there, pretty big blast, rattled our building

Hmm...I'm not sure now. The Hanover Twp. blast was further over by the airport, not sure if you could have seen the building from Tarkett. This was about 10 years ago.
