A friend just called and said he saw the news showing the building that Just Foam is in completely burned up. Anyone hear anything?

A hazardous materials team was called after firefighters found more than 100 50-gallon barrels on pallets outside the building. The barrels were empty but it still has not been determined if chemicals had been stored in them.
Hmmmm…either Oceanside needs to hire some firefighters who surf or the reporter needs to get more sleep…
Foam Wars?
Thank God it appears no one was injured. The factory was really close to houses and with all that wind last night, it’s a miracle it didn’t spread. They have been saying they were going to move to a new factory so I hope that isn’t in jeopardy.

a big fat insurance check might make the move all that much easier…blessing in disguise??

Assuming that they carried fire insurance. So many people jumped into blanks post-Clark that I get the impression that many or most of them were seriously under-capitalized. Back in the early 70’s a surf buddy had started a label (Something Special) and was beginning to do pretty well, but he categorized fire insurance as an expensive luxury he couldn’t yet afford. Turned out to be a massive mistake. Hope it turns out better for these guys…
