    LA Gas Leak Is Capped

    http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/19/us...wary.html?_r=0

    LOS ANGELES — With a mix of pride and great relief, state officials here announced on Thursday that the leaking natural gas well near the Porter Ranch neighborhood — which over the last four months had pumped thousands of tons of methane and other chemicals into the atmosphere, sickening residents and prompting more than 6,000 households to flee — had finally been capped permanently.

    It is good news. The net seems strangely quiet on this so far. Did the people who fixed it at least get a pat on the back? Well done.

    Anytime I'm in doubt I go outside and give it a little shake.

    Last I heard there were hundreds of leaks. Glad it's fixed though just like the 'Gulf Oil Spill' suddenly was.

    So all gas measurements will be publicly available, right? Cause they will all show zero, right?
