The Transamerica Towers was one of the original terrorist targets along with the Sears Tower.
The War has started, and I don't mind killing the evil-doers.
I heard that it was buried real deep and was filled with... No. Wait. That's the sewer.
I don't think they have any air cover, either.
Remember Fairfax, Marin Co., gave the world John W. Lindh; his ilk are mostly elected bay area officials - Berkely, Marin, S.F. The irony is that these will be the people first screaming for tougher laws should anything disatrous happen to us...

The suspicious package was discovered on a loading dock on Larkin. Thousands of people work in the Federal building. The bomb squad is currently investigating the package.
Why would bin Laden attack San Francisco, and risk losing whatever support he has left in the country?

Here is an article apparantly explaining it.
(KCBS) – A suspicious package found at San Francisco’s Federal Building this morning turned out to contain, not an explosive device, but a device made to look like a bomb. KCBS reporter George Harris on the scene says authorities do not know who perpetrated the hoax. Captain Alex Fagan said the sender did intend for it to look like an explosive device. “The question was, was it made to appear to be a device? It appeared to be a device when you looked at the x-ray, so my assumption is that they knew what they were doing when they sent it," he said. The bomb squad has been investigating the device since 9:30 this morning, when it was first discovered on a loading dock. During the incident, people inside the building sheltered in place, and no one from the outside was allowed to enter. Harris said all packages going into the federal building are screened, and this one came up positive for possible explosives. Thousands of people work in the Federal building. Police do not have suspect in custody, but they are investigating the incident. Anyone with information is asked to call the San Francisco police department. (12:15pm, gcb)
