Turkmenistan's leader orders closure of the 'Gates of hell'

https://nationalpost.com/news/world/turkmenistans-leader-orders-closure-of-the-gates-of-hell

Well good morning everyone, I'm back from the holidays and my right hand is almost totally recovered from a pinched nerve in my elbow or shoulder which I suffered while crawling around on the ground trying to relight a furnace.  This little issue had almost immobilized me.  You won't ever respect the work the dominant hand does for you in your daily life.  This gave me a new understanding of Jamie's problems after the northern forces cut off his right hand in the series Game of Thrones.

Getting back to the "Gates of Hell" I thought they were talking about something ancient like Fire Temple in Baku.  Gas seeps occur in petroliferous areas of the world and having them burn until they deplete the gas is common.  Seeps were a very first clue about the existence of hydrocarbons for the industry when the study geology was in it's infancy.

Getting back to "Gates of Hell" I should have known that it was just a Russian drilling "accident".  So plug it.  We here in the western world plug our blowouts.
