    i read it was non-explosive fertilizer. so just the propane would have exploded.

    the vehicle running too. im sure it was planned that way, but not sure why. also, the fact the suspect removed a layer of clothing and put it in a bag indicates a decent level of sophistication and preparation. at least relative to the rednecks in Ga caught with bombs last wk.

    They have the video of the guy that they are looking for, should be fairly easy to find him since this genius can't make a bomb and is practically on every video camera in that area driving and leaving the vehicle.

    i suppose the most likely way he gets away with it is if he quickly got on a plane.

    It wasn't a legal spot . . . one reason that it got noticed very quickly.

    saturday i was bowling at leisure time bowl, which is inside the 42nd street port authority building. i got drunk, and then my friends and i went a new rooftop bar on 10th ave, but i had to cut out early because i had to get up at 5 AM on sunday. so i drunkenly walked to the 7/11 on 42nd near 8 and got two of the cheeseburger things that are shaped like hotdogs. then i stumbled to the times square station N/W train home at 42 and 7. cops were all over the place and they were scattering folks and there were black people yelling like lunatics. the black folsk were mad because the cops were yelling for them to scatter. i assumed there was a big fight or something that had just happened in the street and i thought i was gonna get turned away at the station because cops were coming up the stairs in droves. but they let me in and that was it. i didnt see any flames or anything exciting. i was just south of the lion king theater, and i didnt see anything. it must have been a pretty damn minor thing
