GA tech turned out to be a bottle attached to some fireworks...that couldnt even blow up a picnic table, E Chicago was just a "device" not a car bomb, and this...we'll see...but i do agree with you on OU...Thats troubling...he wasnt even an operative, he was just 'Inspried by allah'...his little inspiration could have killed hundreds.

Doesnt look like much but i thought you guys might want to know.
In East Chicago it was 3 explosive devices found in the trunk of the car...
From the Post/Tribune article:
"Bomb squad officers sent a robot to retrieve the package. When they attempted to open the package, an explosion occurred inside the vehicle.
Sheriff Roy Dominguez said three explosive devices were detonated by police."
About the GA Tech stuff - again 3 devices found which they are now calling them "soda bottle bombs". There is quite a bit of video available including audio of the detonation by the police - rather loud frankly.
Here are the links to the videos at News 11:

I'm obviously not an expert on explosives but it seems more than coincidence to me. How many explosive devices are normally found within a 7-day-period during a state of heightened alert?
