YORK -- People all over a large part of New York City are smelling a gas, and it's not clear where it's coming from.
Numerous people have called 911 concerned about the odor. Con Edison, the Fire Department and the U.S. Coast Guard are investigating.
PATH service has been suspended into the 33rd Street station. Service is still going into the World Trade Center station.
Macy's department store has been evacuated, according to reports.
There also are unconfirmed reports of a similar smell across the river in New Jersey.
People between Midtown and Battery Park are reported to be smelling it. At NBC headquarters in Rockefeller Plaza, the odor is very strong. One person who works on the sixth floor at 30 Rockefeller Center says it's so strong people are leaving the building.
At one major office building at 37th and 7th, employees have been told that Con Edison is looking into a smell, and they should remain inside until they hear otherwise.
Mayor Bloomberg is expected to be asked about it at a 9:30 briefing with the media.
What's the matter, reality got your tongue?
Some of us aren't so blindly led.
That's nice.
FGS, not everything is about immigration.
I'm a little concerned to see you following me around.
"Once your in this family there is no getting out" "Capisce?" ;)
Jay Leno, who is also from New Jersey, will have ample joke material from this incident to last all week.
Unfortunately we will continue to supply ample material until we get our political situation cleaned up, I don't see it happening.
"Yes, I don't want to sleep wit da fishes!" :)
You have a picture up on your profile. I take it that's you. You play baseball; what position?
I'll be watching Jay tonight because I know he'll have some funny jokes about this.
No, you take off, eh?
And take that dorky tuque off, too, ya hoser!
I see you have a picture up also, you were an adorable little girl.
Lol!

I played 1st Base, Pitcher, and Outfield.
I played 1st base and shortstop for Girl Scouts. That was a very long time ago.
Oh, thank you. I think that was second grade and I was missing two front teef.
"Service is still going into the World Trade Center station."
It still hurts so much. God Bless America.
So you are a sports chick aye?
You could say that I guess. I love the Packers (NFL in general), college bowl games, tennis grand slams, March Madness, MLB playoff and World Series games and sometimes watching golf.
Your significant other must be very happy that he found a woman like you.
G'night,
