Dems will find some way to either blame Bush, the sequestration, Tea Partiers or Glenn Beck.

There was no talk on the video of an explosion, and it doesn’t look like it was. It really is odd to see most of the building completely in rubble below knee height and parts of it still standing three stories high. Maybe I am seeing a couple of different buildings.

“The accident took place in a pair of four-story buildings at 22nd and Market Streets that were reported to be under demolition at the time.”

I hope they find everyone and no one is seriously hurt. Not a pleasant thing to go through, I am sure.

I will never understand all the one-liners and joking that accompany threads like this during the early hours of a tragedy involving the possible loss of human life.

One Sunday afternoon my wife was outside, reading in a vinyl Adirondack chair under our Black Walnut tree. About 20 minutes after going inside the house, a big limb came down directly across the chair and obliterated it.

Philadelphia's "Market-Frankford Elevated Train" runs underground right along Market St. there at 22nd Street (and has for many years), as do several "Subway-Surface" underground trolley cars.    (See Market-Frankford Elevated Train system map here:   Philadelphia's Market-Frankford Elevated Train System Map  --  (The collapse is between the 15th St. & 30th St. stops.)

I don't know if all that underground shaking had anything to do with the collapse or not (following the work that was apparently going on there recently).
