Terror Blast Rock London
By Damon McCullar
From CNN this morning:
Four explosions in London's transport system have killed a number of people and wounded dozens more in what UK Prime Minister Tony Blair said was an apparent terrorist attack. More fatalities were sure to follow -- emergency services personnel told CNN that a rescue operation at Kings Cross station had successfully evacuated all survivors, leaving dead below ground "in the double digits." Three of the blasts took place in the city's subway system and one more hit a double-decker bus, all at the height of rush hour. International SOS, an international medical emergency service, reported that the police had found explosive traces in at least one of four confirmed blast locations.

I am in Hong Kong so I have been following this since it first happened at 4 AM Austin time. It is a horrible horrible tragedy though I do not think it will deter the British as a similar heinous crime did the Spanish.
