Uh, I think there was a day care center in the Federal building for employees to leave their children. I Don't think they were supposed to be hostages in case someone with scruples wanted to blow the place up. Since it wouldn't stop anyone without scruples anyway.

Yes, there was a daycare center in the Alfred R Murrah building for the employees to leave their kids at. It was on the second floor. 12 children were killed in the attack.

Thanks for catching that weird question, FJ. The posts ARE getting wacked out today.

Might help in PR when trying to go after a bomber: he blew up KIDS!

Rather cynical if true; but another poster told me it was for kids of the employees, which changes things.
