This report generally fits in with those recent (approx. 3 months ago) AQ statements threatening to destroy the infrastructure of the western world. Of course, AQ is always threatening to destroy the West.

Ah, that's what I was thinking it was. Not thinking terrorism. These things just seem to have a nasty habit of blowing up every once in a while. Then again, I've always wondered why terrorists have never gone after these sorts of things. Or those massive propane tanks at propane filling stations. They seem extremely vulnerable. Those bins of bbq grill propane tanks too. Ram a car into one and you could take out an entire Lowes or HD, like what happened on King of the Hill(propane blowing up a warehouse store, not terrorism) . Really makes me worry.

Before we assume the appropriate demeanor, a vanity question--Is there an official FR number regarding the number of stories broken on FR before it hit the media outlets?

Bet it is a big number.

Appropriate demeanor assumed.

I would imagine Fox and CNN are scrambling tio find a five person to put in front of the camera. It's a weekend.

Not that this helps you now that you left us...but KFMB (local 8 back here in SD) just did a breaking news alert as the news started and it sounded like they intend to say more later in the broadcast once they found out more...showed still images.

Nothing on any of the other stations or cable that I can find here.

Most likely wouldn't go BOOM or if it did, you'd get a fireball and blow out any glass windows & doors. You wouldn't bring down a building that way.

This is like turning to the Weather Channel during bad weather and finding a stupid episode of Storm Stories.

The Beltway Boys? Come on!

"You know, we need to invent something that would keep us refreshed on FR without sitting in front of the computer"

How about a blink refresh interface so I can eat without getting my mouse greasy.

There ain't nothing greasier than greasy mouse.

LOL, Many a mornings, as I drive to work, I curse FR for it's addictive qualities that causes me to ignore my need for sleep, in exchange for being immediately informed of Breaking News!

we don't know yet if anyone was injured

The BBC web site has one line stating that police are reporting casualties.
