I am looking at this piece of pipe:

and the clean end suggests to me that the entire weld failed. What do
our resident pipe weldors say? Steve? Private?

Couldn't have been a bad weld. This was around San Fran so there is no

joke...get it?)

But seriously: The possibility of sabotage exists. They have an
amazing number of nuts out there in Cali.
