    Growing up in a rural farm area, this was not an entirely unusual thing to occur. That always surprised me a little, seeing that it was talked about regularly and a known hazard. It was known well enough that, though I was never a part of the agricultural crowd, I knew the danger silos posed.

      I grew up in a dairy farming community, drowning in slurry pits was the way to go there. Scared me witless as a kid.
