The first reply to one of the threads on DU about this was, I kid you not, "October surprise?"

"Well, Shepard Smith just said "there's absolutely nothing to indicate that this was terrorism.""

It probably wasn't. A terr would have chosen a higher profile target.

I think Shep spoke the truth because there isn't anything right now to indicate that this was terrorism. :)

I would surmise a trafic helicopter. The building is directly on the river and would be easily in range if a trafic helicopter went down.

Remember the one that crashed on top of the PanAm building on 42nd St? They closed the heliport permanently after that. People on the ground were killed.

I read your headline out loud to my daughter. She instantly responded, "This is 10-11."

Smart girl and fast on that one. . .

I remember major news anchors DURING the London bus blow-ups saying that it could all be due to ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS.

And they were 100% serious.

Errr....SERIES...sorry...
