San Francisco fire captain Pete Howes told KCBS a man hole cover in front of the Ralph Lauren store at the corner of Post and Kearny appeared to have exploded,
Manhole covers dont generally explode.
I would speculate that something under the manhole cover exploded.

As scary as the original headline is, this is the funniest thread in a while. Manholes, flames, Ralph Lauren - it's just too easy!

OK, NOW they are covering Aruba. I was getting antsy. It had been at least 15 minutes. Nothing new yet though. The suspense is killing me...
They will be bringing it back with more on Aruba after this commercial break. I may need to go outside and breathe deep. Too long of a wait...

I was out in San Fran on August 6th and about 2:30 there was an explosion too at about 2 a.m. Never did figure out what happened.

Under the manhole? I believe that's a common place to visit in SF.

This could still be something more than an accidental explosion.
To: FairOpinion
and a terrorist attack possibility wasn't even in the top ten things people thought about.That's not really true. Remember, we were getting blasted regularly and Clintoon was too busy getting Lewinskied to do anything about it. We all knew Flt 800 was a terrorist act but they would never admit it in spite of all the evidence to the contrary.

To: freedomson
and the MSM didn't pay any attention. Just a little blurb that said "Explosion reported in Romulus, MI"
But then, why interrupt the important news like Aruba?

Could be anarchists. They like to target brand-name stores.
