1. near Crocker Galleria/ Ralph Lauren store
Market St. area, underground, sounds relatively minor so far.

5. I still don't, but that's me.
Excrement happens.
Always did, always will.

7. I still don't, and that's a lot of us who are better informed in general
I'm not saying terrorism CAN'T happen here (Lord knows, we've done so little to thwart it, as certain Dems have pointed out repeatedly), just that it wouldn't be foreigners whom I'd think of first.

3. Sensational B.S.
They are over reporting a transformer explosion, it is so pathetic, it's like they are hoping it's a terrorist act! No one hurt so far as reported just a mess to clean up..
The media is such a pathetic joke out here, in S.F. Bay.

6. Once an underground transformer blew across the street from us
...power went out after the explosion & when we got to the doorway of the shop we were hanging out in, we saw flames rising through a grate in the ground. I called 911, amazingly the guys at the fire station WITHIN EYESIGHT of the explosion took a few mins to get there. Puh-leeze, we coulda knocked on their door in that time. The experience was hellish in one of those Gee-whiz kinda ways: nobody was hurt.
:evilgrin:
