Yes, two summers ago our neighbours who haul and apparently store toxic chemical has one of their tanks heat up to flash point. By the time it was noticed it was almost ready to blow. The chemical stored in it was an oxygen scavenger and would have killed everything within a mile radius. I got the phone call at work, had to race home and try to find a place for 18 horses, including two stallions, five foals and moms and various other ages of horses. We were posted on a three minute warning. I was fortunate to find a place that was not too far away that could take all my horses and even seperate them the way they had been at home. It was a frightening experience hauling horses and passing fire trucks, water trucks, ambulances, dangerous good teams and many other disaster personel and not knowing if things were going to blow up at any minute. Needless to say the neighbours didn't own up to any responsibility or compensate us for any thing they put us through. My relationship with them cooled considerably after that.
