- nick007 10y agoWe take this seriously. We comply with all regulations (local/state/federal). The Bloomberg article was a little... off... on a number of things. And we actually go above what is required by law on a number of things relating to safety. See also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12073856 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12073856
- serge2k 10y agoThat "We haven't talked to them" line is pretty ridiculous. Of course you haven't talked to them, you know they would flip out about transporting extremely flammable liquid around the city (I'm guessing with questionable methods) and fuelling cars just wherever.

This is unlikely to be any more dangerous. > "You can never ask for permission because no one will give it" This is the unfortunate truth.
