Probably nothing. Just like the rash of derailments in the U.S. post 9/11. I mean, anytime anyone suggested otherwise, all the unusal suspects here would should "CONSPIRACY THEORY!" So it had to be nothing, right?

Synchronized strikes, an al quada signature. Or maybe not. From the prisons of Iraq to the elections in the states, the empire is striking back, dudes. Or maybe not.

Spoke with friends in Denver. A train derailed in the mountains. They didn't think there were casualties. Anything with a train, after Spain, makes you grab the tinfoil.

Didn't see anything on Yahoo news.

In the meantime, my pc is challenged right now. I would like to post this, but can't.

Two Iraqi women who worked for coalition killed when their bus is fired upon. I'm sure it will be front page news.

"Two trains have crashed outside the north-west Italian city of Genoa seriously injuring at least 15 people, Italian media report.
A passenger train came off a line near Serravalle Scrivia, about 50 kilometres (30 miles) north of Genoa, striking a locomotive on another track.

The train was a local service running between Livorno and Turin.

It was not immediately clear what had caused the derailment, which happened at about 1630 local time (1430 GMT). "

wow, and I will be traveling to Italy VERY soon . . .

it is deeply frightening to know though, something like that would have a 'great impact' on someone for a long time (hitting a deer, with my car going 50 mph was bad enough) . . . I will be traveling on different trains most of the time

Three? Huh? All in one accident? At different locations? Three? That sounds very suspect.
