Yes, we are lucky it fell over much of east Texas because that area is
not as populated.  It is mostly farms, ranches, and small (very small)
towns, so the propability of the debris hitting anyone is greatly
reduced compared to the debris falling on a city like Dallas.

But even still, I am greatly surprised *no one* was hurt, *no* house
was destroyed, not even a church lost a steeple.  With millions of
pieces falling down, and there had to be some big chunks out there
that fell, all I saw on tv were chucks no bigger that 4' x 4'.

I think we were lucky that the explosion happened after the sun rised,
the weather was perfect, the sky was clear, and everyone was expecting
it to fall.
