    Three of the six barges were on fire. One took 10 minutes of pouring water on to extinguish. The others were quicker. These were not real small fires. Sized Like 2 or three cars burning.

    I thought I was the only one to really catch those fires… i was on a 31st flr balcony and even though they looked miniscule from where i was, I know that those fires were no joke…the middle barge sort of exploded stray fireworks at one point…i just hope nobody was hurt

The only thing I found new from my last search is this site http://philadelphia.momslikeme.com/members/JournalActions.aspx?g=188898&m=6204298 . But nothing else.
