Given how rabidly anti-smoking New York has become, someone probably lit up a cigarette and Mayor Bloomberg declared Code Red as a result.

NYC must be experiencing a lot of fear.

Tall buildings, subways, too many minorities to be able to discern terrorists...

Good. The eilites there may get a clue. Since they led the country into the current liberal mess, maybe after experiencing enough of this, they will lead us out.

I just saw on the ticker of News 12, that the fire has been put out, but Penn Station remains closed due to smoke conditions.

If that monstrosity burns up, it will be a great gift to architecture.

Of course, that's tongue-in-cheek, since you'd hate to see anyone get hurt. Oh, why oh why did they destroy beautiful Penn Station and replace it with that hideous structure?

Critical industries and key infrastructure should take steps to guard against potential terrorist attacks, including checking for possible infiltrators among employees, according to a new government warning.

The FBI and the National Infrastructure Protection Center said in the bulletin that security routines should be varied and officials should think back to unusual incidents that might indicate they are being targeted.


Now, how many employees @ Penn are from Pakistan, etc?
