ean Poquette-Seidl narrowly escaped injury when her house almost filled with natural gas this past week. Poquette-Seidl who lives alone in the structure during the week when her husband is driving truck managed to evacuate the home before the Public Service gas crew arrived to declare an emergency.
Jean Poquette-Seidl panics with her head out the window as her house fly's into the air in this dramatization of what could have happened.
The leak was apparently not in her home but blocks away, the leak was so large though that all the neighbors thought that there was a leak in their own home and Poquette-Seidl along with dozens of her neighbors called in the mysterious smell out doors. When questioned about the incident Poquette-Seidl mentioned she was grateful that the leak was contained so fast and that none of her equipment was involved with the mishap. Poquette-Seidl: "I know that if I indeed had a leak just one phone call to my excellent brother in law Mike would have had him here in minutes plugging the leaking gas and solving the problem." As it turned out Poquette-Seidl was able to rest easy after the Public Service crew fixed the leak and restored gas to the customers affected. The leak apparently was not in her home but blocks away and wafted over in her direction. Relieved that the leak was not at her residence, Poquette-Seidl celebrated by cooking a couple of corn dogs for her dinner and consumed an alcoholic beverage while eating them.

VANLANEN'S ESCAPE INJURY AFTER COLISION AT STOP LIGHT
Peg and Dan Vanlanen got a surprise this week after their car was struck from behind while waiting for a traffic standard to change from red to green. The accident commonly referred to as being "rear ended" resulted in little if no damage to the Vanlanen automobile according to Dan Vanlanen who spoke of the accident Friday night. Vanlanen described the mishap which happened at Mason Street and Packerland Drive, as getting a severe jolt. Dan Vanlanen thought at first that he might have been injured when his shoulder hurt, but then remembered a little while later that he just had rotator cuff surgery and it had hurt before the accident too. Peg Vanlanen who escaped any injury as well, said that the operator of the vehicle that hit them was going too fast to stop at the light.
