Thanks, I was just going off the headline and what I heard this morning on TV before leaving the house. How many bombs were there? Any update on number of casualties (although that will probably change quite a bit in the next few days)?

From the emergency services briefing at 3 pm local (10 am Eastern) -

- 4 bombs total (3 in subways, 1 on a bus - could we have a title update please?).
- 33 confirmed dead from the subway blasts, an unknown number from the bus blast.
- 300 injured.
- Nobody left trapped in the subways.

Remember the Islamists attacked the WTC TWICE.

I will bet dollars to donuts, the organizers are going to redo this attack in an effort to make the underground collapse as intended.
