Re: AOC Rules!
Are you dense or something? I already have said that pipelines are safer than trains. How a pipeline leak compares to a train is irrelevant, except for anyone trying to make excuses for things that should not happen.
And having a less than 10 year old pipe leak is NOT GOOD ENOUGH. If they are so safe, then why are they leaking at all? These are items where the factor of safety can be very large, and I can't see that really being super expensive. They are welded steel, for crying out loud. Testing that is very well known. Making strong enough is very well known. All of the stuff going into it is well known. The environment it lives in is very well known. There's NO excuse for a less than 10 year old pipeline to leak at all.
So it's high time that people who finance it put some pressure on whoever is making and using it to do a better job.
