"Refesh my memory, Isn't Boren a died -in- the -wool lefty???"

Oklahoma Democrats are different from crazy Democrats--they're a lot like the Texas Democrats who support the President.

Both sides of my family are from Oklahoma, and they are virtually all Democrats. For the most part, the support the President and love our country. I can sit down a visit with all my cousins with a couple of exceptions and have interesting and entertaining conversations regarding politics. We love one another enough not to get into hate fests.

David Boren brought Tom Brokaw to the University to speak at graduation, if you remember, and I believe he has come to regret doing that. Many Oklahomans were angry with Brokaw and demanded some accountability for that.

"There WAS an explosion in a stadium filled with 80,000 people."

WRONG. There was NO explosion in the stadium. Go back and carefully read this thread. It is not time to panic yet... especially based on incorrect information.

Have an "ear witness" Talking on another board. He says that it was a deep boom, too big for a pipe bomb. He says that he has experience with pipe bombs. Considering the board, I'll lean toward believing him.

"Just got off the phone with a frind who works at a TV station in the Tulsa market... says it was a suicide. Not terrorism... just a jackass who may have wanted attention."

Why would there be 2 devices if it was 1 person committing suicide?

No doubt here.

Maybe it was some activist against the "Sooner" name.

...the use of a pipe bomb seems pretty iffy for a man intending suicide.

I don't know. Paul Harvey had the story of some death row inmate that fashioned a pipe bomb out of part of his cot
and the corners of playing cards.

He successfully deprived the executioner work.

I do not want to practice medicine on line. Be aware of the symptomatology. Should you run an unexpected fever, have a severe headache, break out in a rash, or have an unexpected cough go to your physician and check it out. Last I understood streptomycin was the drug of choice, but that has probably changed. We rarely utilize that drug these days. Use common sense and do not panic. It is extrememly unlikely that you have come in contact with the agent.

Occam's Razor. Sometimes a kid with pipe bombs is just a kid with pipe bombs. How many of us played with explosives in our youth without planning something sinister and without getting ourselves killed? I doubt half the Estes Rockets my friends and I bought in our youth were actually for rockets.

Regardless of what anyone tells you, if someone wants suicide all it takes is a rope and a tree or a bullet and a "borrowed" gun. Making a pipe bomb requires PREMEDITATED MURDER as your intention.
