Gotcha. Was thinking you were singling out this place as disorderly. If it comes to it, once I have my wife and boy, best be moving in front of me lest you have boot prints up your back

Believe it or not there is no siren here at the container port in STX. you think this place SHOULD have one.

Wow. You'd think all seaside locations would have them, indeed and especially one so important.

stxsailor, we held a company-wide evacuation drill in conjunction with the VITEMA test, never heard the sirens. The old hands were expecting the refinery to sound their alarms at the appointed time, but I guess the new owners didn't play along. I guess the nearest siren to the port is Sion Farm.

The Hovensa sirens have not been used once refining stopped in 2012.
