I'll have to admit that's what I was thinking too. Also the complete lack of mention of any drug units is a giveaway.

Here's the info on the arrest in ATL:

It looks like the incident at Georgia Tech yesterday falls into the category of "copy cat" or "stupid freshman trick" instead of terrorism.

The Atlanta Journal Constitution is reporting the following:

A Georgia Tech freshman confessed Tuesday to setting up explosive water bottles in a campus courtyard, school officials said.

Theodore Hollot, 18, was charged with felony possession of a destructive device and reckless conduct, a misdemeanor.

Hollot, an engineering major from Pennsylvania, was suspended from school pending the investigation, said Georgia Tech Assistant Vice President Amelia Gambino.

Gambino said the incident was "not a terrorist attack."

Tech evacuated two dorms Monday morning after a plastic water bottle exploded in a campus custodian's hands. The employee, who complained of ringing in his ears, was taken to a clinic for evaluation, but was not seriously injured.

The Atlanta police bomb disposal squad detonated two other suspicious bottles found in the area.

What an idiotic thing for him to do, probably ruined whatever career he was planning or at least delayed it.

They should throw the book at him and not the college book!!

Regarding the story about the guy with the arab sounding name who shot himself I wonder about the smell emitting from the apartment. I've heard meth has an odor [?] but we suspect he would not kill himself over meth so what was it? They will probably never tell us.

Kyla, please keep checking the local news.

Finally after posting all this it seems to me we've had a lot of incidents at colleges in the past two weeks. OU, Georgia Tech-dummy, UCLA, San Diego for starters.
