    Back when my dad had his chemical company in Boulder, Colorado, there was a release of chlorine gas from a process and it vented outside - right over the Putt-Putt Golf course next door! Yeah, the same stuff chemical weapons use.

    Dad ran out to the factory floor to help contain the rest of the mess, and his brother raced off to the emergency room and handed out business cards to the families who came in to seek care, telling them they would cover all costs.

    Ah! The good old days of actually being responsible for your mistakes (though, having the vent tube point towards the Putt-Putt was probably not the best decision to begin with!)
