Could you repost that on the new thread?
Thanks for the Philly update!
My nerves got the best of me, and I departed.
"Independence Mall is expected to be the biggest attraction, with Afghan President Hamid Karzi accepting the Liberty Medal. And there is still a chance President Bush could be in town, as well."
When Bush was in town in January, he spoke briefly to a group of Republicans meeting at a major hotel. Several of these visitors became ill. The next day, a company from Jersey held a convention in the same hotel.
69 of these people had to be taken to area emergency rooms for treatment of violent gastrointenstinal symptoms. MANY others became ill as well- but hung on in the hotel or went home.
There was no followup on what caused these illnesses.
This particular hotel is quite near City Hall. It is on Market St. as you head toward Pennsylvania Station, the Gallery Mall, and the like.
It has an excellent reputation not only for food, but for cleanliness.
I hope so! (re:- Philly remaining safe over the holidays)
Don't mean to be Captain Obvious here, but I assume the U.S. Government monitors these Islamic chat rooms?
Hi,
What happened to the days between the second and the tenth? I was in Cape Cod for a week and I am just catching up. Kerry is President in Cape Cod; I did not see even a picture of Bush all week or one news story. Between Kerry and the Redsox I just wanted to kill myself. Can't wait for next year's Cape Vacation!
