They also need ammonia to make meth. Maybe that was the type of hidden money they were looking for.

Re: drilling for money

First I heard of that Motorboat. That ammonia if some pretty nasty stuff, I worked at Tyson Foods as a Lead there, they would wait to long to evacuate the employees out of the building. I had to stick around and make sure every body was out in my area allot of the times. If you have asma like some of these people did they would end up going to the company nurse after the building cleared up, some of them managed to go home. We had one supervisor who had asma that pulled the fire alarm when we had an ammonia leak and guess what the supervisor got into trouble. I'm glad I don't work there anymore, but I had my good times to, allot of the higher ups definitely don't know how to treat people

After I got permanently laid off, they had a couple of guys back in What that called the ammonia room, well one guy happened to be standing right by one of the tanks when the tank busted. He now has over 80% of his body burned, from what I understand there was other people taken to the hospital also. It was all over our news about that. Then the dumb a**** had enough nerve to keep half the plant running after all that. That wasn't right surely the smell of that ammonia was still very strong. If I remember right that stuff can also cause cancer. It would also make your sinuses clear right up.
