5/21 Explosion reported at Yale University. Check AP wires.
\_ I'll wander over and check it out -new haven resident
\_ I was just on the roof of the yale engineering building with
binoculars checking shit out. Engineering is a couple
blocks form the law school. there is nothing to see.
the reports of "white smoke rising over the city" are almost
certainly some numnutz reporter's observation of the steam from the
physical plant building right next door to the law school.
There are lots of cops and reporters, obviously, but they have
reached a steady state by now. No one was hurt, and there have been
no threats against yale or new haven. Barbara Bush is not in
New Haven right now(yale just finished exams last week.)
\_ No reported injuries so far. When did it happen?
\_ Confined to one mail room, Bush was on campus a few hours prior.
\_ He was in New London, not New Haven.
\_ ...briefly, earlier in the day. almost certainly unrelated.
\_ I hope Rory hasn't got there yet!
\_ It's a University. Shit blows up at schools all the time.
\_ Did someone leave the gas on in the lounge kitchen? Yes, I know
some people said it was the mail room.
\_ Current wherabouts of Ted Kazynski?
\_ Federal Pen, duh. |
