NANNING - Six people, including a one-year-old boy, were burned in a sulfuric acid spill in South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on Friday, local police said Saturday. The accident happened at around 10 am Friday when the sulfuric acid was being unloaded from a truck at a plant in Xingning district of the provincial capital Nanning, said local traffic police. Over 2 tons of sulfuric acid flew through the gate of the plant and onto a busy road outside, toppling several motorcycles and injuring at least six people, police said. The one-year-old sustained serious burns covering 19 percent of his body, they said. An initial investigation shows that an improper unloading practice caused the spill.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
