[help me] Please someone help me...

I am supposed to do a speech in 1 week for a college class, I chose the topis PEPCON explosion in Las Vegas in the year 1988.

Here's what I know, The plant was making Ammonium Perchlorate a highly flammable and poentially explosive substance which is commonly used as an oxidizer in the Fuel of Most Common Rockets. The story which I need to find out if it is true of not, says that workers were attempting to weld a hopper which had been used to "I guess Hop!?" the Valitile Chemical, During the welding process some of the residue from the Ammonium Perchlorate Caught on fire and the fire quickly spread to the rest of the complex. The Fire Caused several Large Containers of this chemical to Visciously and Violently Explode Killing 2 People as the rest of the faculty and workers were fleeing for their lives across the Arizona desert. The Explosion Caused Huge shock waves which Registered a 3.5 on the richter scale and destroyed a nearby Marshmallow Factory. Also Blowing out windows, doors and causing other severe Damage in a nearby town.

I can't seem to find a page in here should I try to create one even though I have no real sources? Please someone help..
