Massive fire, explosion rocks Chevron refinery in El Segundo

That refinery is right next to LAX airport

Wow, it’s making national news. I live one town over and supposedly we can see the blaze from here (at least, last night). I go over that way on the regular since I like that area.

I always thought it odd El Segundo, beach city, had such a major refinery right on the coast. Kinda kept it from being as popular and well known as Santa Monica or Laguna, etc.

Fun fact, it’s also a major game company hub, lots of asian game companies have their US branches there, like Bandai Namco and Square Enix (in the 999 building no less, lol).

Crap, I left my wallet there
