Last time I was gonna by blades at the local store was about 10 years ago. I was sufficiently miffed at the corporatocracy's price skimming and gouging that I hopped on the intertubes and bought about $20 worth of twin- or triple-blade cartridges from India. And there will likely be inventory on hand when I die.

It predates your story by at least five years, 2007, when a Silicon Valley engineer revealed that a backbone line had been spliced and all traffic was passing to government machines.

That revelation also inspired an outraged public backlash of 'meh.'

I read something earlier that said the explosion was the result of 'dust compression.' I've never heard of that, and suspect it's wrong. It's a volatile atmosphere in the proper stoichiometric ratio and a single spark could set it off.

Compression would be like a diesel engine, and i don't see how that level of compression could occur in a silo.

If'n somebody knows more about a compression explosion in this situation, please enlighten me.
