297 students, teachers and guests were killed when an undetected natural gas leak in the basement ignited into one giant explosion. No terrorists or ISIS, just human error. It was such a tragedy for the whole east Texas area. So many innocent lives lost. So many families changed forever. After this tragedy, legislation was enacted to add maleodorants in natural gas to detect the smell of gas.
This is a really sad history lesson, but history needs to be remembered.
