In 2010 I wrote two articles about cooking methamphetamine and the risks of an explosion and fire. On Youtube there is dramatic footage of buildings exploding from the combustion processes involved with the manufacture of meth. In Iowa's latest news report I’m reminded once again about the dangers to neighbors where meth is being processed. For those living in the vicinity of a suspected meth lab, call law enforcement, after all your life or your kid’s life may depend on it.

In a recent case two people were sentenced to long prison terms for this very thing. See Iowans sentenced in meth case stemming from fire, Fort Dodge, Iowa, The Messenger. Aug. 30, 2011.

For more information search Youtube for “methamphetamine explosions”.
