Thomas Bond Wed, 06 Sep 2017 12:18:47 +0000 http://www.frackcheckwv.net/?p=20999#comment-207742 After teaching chemistry and smelling hydrogen sulfide four forty years, and devoting some time and energy learning Toxicology, you have to wonder why this had to happen. The odor is terrible, and H2S is one of the compounds one can detect in lowest concentration. Furthermore, there are sensors that are capable of detecting it. This is one case which management is obviously responsible, since the workers would not expose themselves either accidentally or voluntarily, even if they had not been warned. Definitely something OSHA should be onto.
