MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- John Jenkins wants $10 million because of an exploding john.
He's suing Chisler, a general contractor, and the Eastern Associated Coal Corp.

Eastern Associated Coal owns the West Virginia property where the explosion occurred. The suit charges Chisler with running over pipelines with heavy equipment before the incident, causing a methane gas leak.
