Update on pipeline explosion story that killed a family of four in Scotland on December 22, 1999:

Gas supply company Transco has promised to review its use of a certain type of piping after an explosion in a Lanarkshire town which killed a family of four. Many of the 60 Larkhall residents who attended the meeting were angry that neither Transco nor the Health and Safety Executive, who were also represented, would say what caused the explosion.

The story is interesting in light of reports of two gas related explosions that occurred in Italy and England earlier today.
