how bad is it out there, from what you can see?

do you work at Rockefeller center?

(by the way, I havent been to NYC before, but I knew when I saw 62nd in the headline that it was near my roommate's building. broke out the map and, sure enough, its just about 5 blocks away. his apartment is at 72nd on the west side though. I'm going visit him in about a month...we're roommates during the school year, in case you were wondering how I could have a roommate in NYC all the way from Texas. =P)

1. All I can see is the crowd of people being held at the police barricade 1/2 block away. I didn't hear any explosion and have been here since 6:00AM. In truth, you can see more from fox News, but a few co-workers are going over to have a look. I'll report any new data.

2. I used to work at Rockefeller Center, and that's 15 blocks south from here. Now I'm at 59th and Park.

3. Your roomate's place is a little over a mile away across central park....quite a distance by NYC standards.
