But so far there has been no reports of gas smells and no gas leaks found in the Indianapolis explosion as far as I could read...,

What are you talking about? I'm talking about the bright ball that's obviously coming out of the ground behind the trees.

You didn't read my response obviously. I DID refer to the bright what light. It's evident in front of the firemen (possibly from a truck mounted lamp) and the white ball of light where the house once was could simply be an EMT or whomever also with a super bright flashlight such as what firemen use in emergencies ... bright light inside smoke plume = what you see there.....
I suppose it's possible that it is in fact Supermans long lost brother who has just now arrived, and that bright light is the emergency beacon flashing when he popped the lid off his meteorite hot rod spaceship....

I have near perfect vision and I don't see one either.
I think you're ok
I have read the whole thread...and note that the utility company have stated it was not a gas explosion..nor have any other authorities....unless Ive missed that post and perhaps you could point it out to me...thanks....oh and perhaps address my point about the photographs posted that show the trees undamaged, not from the pic you posted but from those just after the event..

Actually, if you've read the entire thread, there have been live reports from members here who live in that area, of smelling rotten eggs.
The gas utility for that area specifically states that a leak will smell like rotten eggs

Yes that tree has burn damage...caused by the fire that actually took place in that photograph you published. There is no evidence that the fire in your pic was primary to a gas blast happening.. As a matter of fact the word "Gas" is absent from all reports and has been denied by the utility company....but...you still havnt addressed the pics I posted that show the trees undamaged while all else around them is in pieces....

1. I never said that the fire damage to the tree had anything to do with gas. Just fire.
2. I haven't seen any link/report where CEG has denied any leaks.
3. I did respond to the fact the trees were undamaged (possibly to another members post however):
It's pretty simple.
Wood used to make a house is dead, and dry.
Wood from a living tree is moist.
Trees also have roots.
Houses don't.
When a house EXPLODES, the DEAD DRY wood will CATCH FIRE
A tree, by contrast, which is still alive, is moist, and is rooted in the ground via a main trunk that is fairly flexible -- is much more immune to the same kind of damage.
