This book analysis report by Herb Zinser looks at some of the subset secret message codes embedded within the larger context of a
book / newspaper story.
Newspapers and books use various levels of English language; thus it is up to the older and wiser newspaper / book reader to use his math and science background to translate and understand the multi-faceted PRINT message.
Book/ newspaper publishers print some pieces to a puzzle ......
and the reader's optical nerve SOFTWARE database is asked
to figure out the other pieces ...... the pieces that explain WHY .... that explain CAUSE and EFFECT.
Herb Zinser provides some data about Nature's SYMBOL MACHINE comprised of nouns, verbs, concepts, math equations, flowcharts, etc. The ideas found in math and basic science high school and college textbooks are part of the SYMBOL MACHINE.
Using Galileo's suggestion of " 2 CHIEF WORLD SYSTEMS"
we now perceive Sartre existentialism as partitioned into 2 or more data spaces....... the 2 CHIEF existential entities.
1) physical reality of objects: concrete highways,
iron automobiles, cellulose trees, humanoids, etc.
2) The world of symbols, concepts,
process control system flowcharts,
biochemistry diagrams, math and physics equations, etc.

Symbols Maps and Territories
There is a sense in which we all live in two worlds.
Thus we have
the source domain of SYMBOL LIFE and thought
that may get mapped to
the destination range of physical reality and biology ....
with human social and economic activities
on the geography surface of EARTH.
Let's look at some books /news articles and TRANSLATE
the embedded subset codes and concepts.
2006 Falk Corporation explosion - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › 2006_Falk_Corporation_explosion
The Falk Corporation explosion refers to a large and fatal propane gas explosion at a Falk Corporation building in the industrial Menomonee River Valley neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, on December 6, 2006.
Three people were killed and forty-seven others injured. Cars were reportedly flipped through the air and debris scattered over several blocks.[1] An investigation of the cause of the disaster uncovered leaks in a pipe running below the building, which supplied propane to the heating system for the complex. Several parties involved in the explosion have launched legal action in connection to the accident.
Falk Corporation
Main article: Falk CorporationThe Falk Corporation manufactures large industrial gears, couplings, chains, bearings and other industrial components and equipment.[2] Located in the Menomonee River Valley in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, it is owned by Rexnord. The complex is more than 61 acres (250,000 m2), and has 1,500,000 square feet (140,000 m2) of buildings.[1] 600 people were inside the complex at the time of the explosion.[1] The building that exploded was located in one corner of the complex. The building that housed the propane tanks was two separate structures joined together. One of the buildings was used as a warehouse for storing components used in the manufacturing process, and was called the Annex. The other building, called the 2-2 building, was a maintenance facility.[1] The two buildings between them housed six propane tanks[3] and covered 50,000 square feet (5,000 m2).[4]
Explosion and emergency response
Before the explosion, most of the workers had evacuated the building. Police Chief Nannette Hegerty stated that an evacuation had begun 10 to 14 minutes before the explosion. According to reports by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, a Falk spokeswoman stated that the evacuation was limited to the area near a propane leak. The Journal's report also stated that a man said that he smelled gas about thirty minutes before the explosion occurred. Another worker reported a propane leak, and shut off the tank and issued a warning, but could still smell the gas.[7] The Journal interviewed six employees who said they were never formally evacuated because it would have led them through the Annex building.[7]At 8:07 A.M. Central time the entirety of the dual building exploded. The explosion happened while workers were performing a test to switch to a back-up system heating system which used propane instead of gas to heat the facility.[8]
The explosion killed three people and injured 47.[3] It was later discovered that the people who were killed were attempting to repair the leak.[9] Debris landed several blocks away from the site of the explosion and cars were hurled through the air by the force of the blast. The explosion caused widespread damage to an area approximately the size of two football fields.[1] The Department of Neighborhood Services later carried out an inspection of the site; they discovered that buildings within a radius of approximately 500 feet (150 m) had sustained heavy damage, such as torn-off roofs and collapsed walls.[8] Roughly thirty separate vehicles were destroyed in the blast.[6]
The nearest fire station was just six blocks away. Firefighters were initially alerted by the force of the explosion buckling the fire station door. Originally it was thought that a car had struck the fire station, but when firefighters went outside, they quickly realized this was not the case.[1] One of the drivers soon spotted smoke and a fire engine and a paramedic unit were dispatched to go to this smoke. These vehicles were the first rescuers on the scene and arrived just three minutes, forty seconds after the initial explosion. They immediately sent for the department's heavy urban rescue team. Ultimately, 125 firefighters in 34 vehicles, 52 police officers, multiple private ambulances and the American Red Cross all helped at the scene, which was classed by the fire service as a five-alarm emergency.[1]
