by the way, have you seen a &quot;21 ton TNT&quot; crater :<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wsj.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;tianjin-blast-destruction-from-above-1439654034" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wsj.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;tianjin-blast-destruction-from-a...</a><p>Looking at it i&#x27;m pretty sure there should be at least 1 more trailing zero in the TNT equivalent number, and the 21 ton is just a small portion of the explosion energy, ie. it is the portion which went into the ground and formed the seismic wave.

James Kennedy has this analysis of the explosion [ <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jameskennedymonash.wordpress.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;17&#x2F;the-chemistry-behind-the-tianjin-explosions&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jameskennedymonash.wordpress.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;17&#x2F;the-chem...</a> ], including the possible chemical reactions and the amount of energy released.

The article make it sound like the incompetence of the Chinese officials is something particularly bad or remarkable.<p>For my experience those level of incompetence is just what you should expect.<p>Western world have no idea what China really means...

Nice try by the author to convince people to believe whatever the social media threw at them.

Funny how a &quot;we are dying&quot; note reads like.
