Not sure where that comes from?
The better question is - are they going to replace the batteries when they get old and near useless? I'm guessing tons of people run their cars into the ground, so replacing batteries at $2000+ once every 8 or so years doesn't seem like something they will want to do.

Well, the gas kinda goes along with @Obsolesce power question... the battery would be more like the engine (not an exact comparison). I suppose a better one would be breaks. Breaks are needed typically every 4-8 years, and cost around $400 (if you don't do them yourself)... that's a long way from $2000+ for batteries.

Sarcasm?
A family's pet passed away, regardless of the stardom of the pet. The family is likely grieving.

Someone in my FB feed yesterday posted a video from their cellphone of the aftermath yesterday... I was waiting to hear more news about it.

That has no basis in fact. A random warehouse worker is highly unlikely to have any idea if there was live ordinance on the plane.

USAF won't state otherwise, that's as much admission as there is. That eye witness says there is live ordinance and there is no denial, that's as "confirmed live ordinance" as there can be. Is it the same as the USAF confirming it? No. Is the USAF a trustworthy source however? Not in the least.

Yeah this is unfounded, one worker said that he thought there may have been live ordinances.
What is more surprising if the fuel didn't ignite and explode.

Tell me, how exactly is this random person supposed to know that shit was live or not?
Nope. people are fucking stupid in general. I will not accept this type of statement without any kind of proof.
