Tell me more about this mall

I think they are talking about the Cambridgeside Galleria Mall, which is south of MIT and next to the Charles River. Its a large brick building, maybe 4- 5 stories high (built within the last 20 years, and the parking garage is inside the main building in the lower levels (I think...I've been in the mall but never parked there, but there are no real outside parking lots and there are parking garage entrances right in the side of the building). A big truck bomb (and they don't know if this was a bomb attempt yet) could take out the whole building if the bomb was in the parking garage in my opinion).

What else could it be? Gas cans duct taped to the walls? 55 gallon drums on the back of a Ryder truck? NAh, these are either terrorists or terrorists.

Don't worry , this will be classified as another unfounded rumor any minute now.

Maybe the security guards are to be commended here. After all, if they had succeded in stopping the van, the cornered terrorists might have detonated it under the mall. Now they are on the run and we have an idea of what they are up to. If they are cornered and decide to detonate, I much prefer it to be on an open road.
