Water Main Break Leads To Road Closure

-snip video-

The 12-inch main gave way around 1:30 a.m. Thursday, sending water shooting up into the air and creating what looked like a geyser in the middle of Blanco Road near West Lullwood Avenue.

A short time later, the pavement above the break began to crumble and give way.

2. today I have discovered that if I go to a pipe article on the metacrawler

list I have crashes, etc. but if I copy the address of the pipe news story to my favorites list and then go to the story they will load faster and not crash as much. why would that be?

5. What metacrawler? How can we possibly help you if you

provide no information? I'm assuming you want help with your problem. If not, then never mind.

4. Uh, it's highly unlikely that it is those news sites that are

messing up your PC. It's something else. However, we don't have enough information to offer any suggestions. In a later message, you mention your metacrawler. Which metacrawler? What browser? What operating system?

Whatever problem you are having, it's almost certainly not at those television station sites. Look elsewhere or provide us with enough information to be of some assistance.
