Just got in from Penn Station. Has anyone heard any reports on why there was a battalion of firefighters and emergency vehicles surrounding the 33rd Street entrance at Penn Station? No reports on the radio yet. This is definitely not the norm.

John Gambling was saying on the radio this morning that "I talked to some people who told me I was nuts for continuing to come to work in this building". WABC radio NYC is at 2 Penn Plaza, right above the station.
