Are you serious?
Do you believe in Santa Claus????
NEW YORK (AP) - Until a suspected terrorist plot was revealed, few people even knew there was a pipeline of highly combustible jet fuel snaking beneath the nation's largest city.

yes i am serious. jet fuel is the same as kerosene. it is flammable but not explosive. a bomb could cause a fire but to think that it could blow up a city or an airport is silly.

You are correct and you have my apologies.
The vapor is explosive but not the fuel by itself. So if there were any vapor in any of the tanks or piplelines there would have been an explosion.
