  • I googled it to find an article about the attack, and interestingly enough the news article actually described what chlorine does when used in a chemical attack.  Good thing I didn't just read the headline and head on over to AM.

  • Anyone that has ever worked with chlorine gas in its pure form, will tell you that swapping out empty one ton cylinders for full tanks is a meticulous and potentially dangerous activity that requires patience and a steady hand. The stuff is deadly. It is used in a variety of industrial settings including the treatment of wastewater in huge volumes.
