Interesting, although not much more informative than the CNN stories. Of course, the CNN stories floated a couple of hypotheses about the causes of the problem. Also, everyone seems to agree that there was a disagreeable odor, so that the reaction could have been hysterical, related to the sense of something being amiss. As for being confined to Flanders, even if the two plants distribute throughout the country, a day's shipment would be more localized. Still, an interesting story...(Incidentally, I was pleased to see that I could read it without running to the Larousse, although knowing the essentials of the story probably helped me <g>...)
