You're welcome, Cindy.

Yup...it had nails....lots of them at that.

All we think that we know (i.e., unconfirmed by official sources) is that the holes in the tree were the size of 16-penny nail heads, not necessarily the size of the nails themselves. Terrorists in Israel have been known to cut off the straight part of the nail and just use the nail head with a short, sharp stub.

Less mass + smaller profile = deeper penetration of flesh

Check out this photo of the blast site from Northeast Intelligence Network. I want to say that I see pock marks on the near side of the concrete -- Hinrichs was apparently sitting on the left side of the park bench -- but I can't tell for sure. Enlarging the picture doesn't help either or I would have posted an enlarged version.

Thanks, DallasMike, for that useful clarification and the photo. Didn't notice those pock marks before. Pinging PKM and HR too.

Interesting that NYC now is under a threat warning, could it be something uncovered during this investigation. I know Bloomberg claims the discovery came from overseas.

Well, we don't really know where roomie Cheema is right now!

[Just mythoughts]

I think there is a whole lot not known, as for us to know would also let the plotters and planners know we know, then a change of plans.

Well in most farm communities the farm supply stores know their customers. They know when a guy shows up to "buy all you got" he's up to no good....he's either building a bomb or making meth.

I can't believe the cop was so unprofessional, especially in todays post 9/11 world. What was the LEO thinking....nothing I guess.

Where's OK's federal funding dollars going for HSL preparedness? The Governor's next election fund raising kitty...oh sorry FR Viking kitties that was pretty insulting, please except my apologies.

"What was the LEO thinking....nothing I guess."

He appears to have been thinking that he had the best part of a week before anything might happen. The little CYA article that the Norman PD put out actually dug a deeper hole. When this off-duty police officer overheard the odd and disturbing conversation between Hinrichs and Ellison, the store owner's son, he only called in to run the tags, and didn't react because the tags came up clean. Also, from this article that was intended to absolve the officer, he has yet to file a written statement, which, according to police chief Younger, would have "eventually been forwarded" to federal authorities.

The unintended upshot of this article: no sense of urgency whatsoever. In light of the reportedly substantial amount of ammonium nitrate found in Hinrichs and Cheeba's apartment, they are very, very lucky that they don't have a repeat of the Murrah Building, but with far more people, hanging over their heads.

Let's just hope and pray that this woke them from their slumber.

Exactly what I was thinking too. Little too rich for a college kid and not a sports car. hmmmmm
