I was watching the news while eating breakfast. Because I worked at keeping up the automated dispatching system for a major utility company, I figured it would be a good idea to grab a portable radio and leave right away to try and catch the next earlier train to downtown. I ran a test program I had written to make sure the dispatch network was up and then manually checked our radio towers. I had the portable radio tuned to an all news station sitting on a table in a conference room where the signal was strongest. On the news they said that city hall, the building we were in and the Library Tower across the street were likely targets. Security announced that the commuter rail line was closed and our building was closed to all incoming people. Of maybe 100 people on our floor, 5 or 6 were there. We talked it over, then called the dpt. manager and were told to leave. The subway was still running so we all left and made our way home as best we could and worked by remote links to make sure the dispatch system stayed up.

Unfortunately, more and more whining chicken s..t traitors have forgotten that event and are sniveling about our continued fight against those crazy evil people.
