A guy who sits next to me got a call this morning from a ham radio operator friend of his. The friend said he had just overheard a call from a police officer in downtown San Francisco that a bomb had just gone off on the street and it appeared to be a terrorist attack. For several minutes I raced around the web, searching for some news that might have been published. I remember feeling like "here we go".. as if San Francisco was overdue for an attack and this was just the beginning.
It turned out to be an underground explosion of some power equipment that blew off a manhole cover and actually did injure a few people. The policeman had just jumped to a conclusion. Shocking.
In any case. I suppose we've bought one more terror-free day.
