    my nephew missed the explosion on the underground by about 10 minutes, he was on the same underground line when the explosion happened, he said the trian suddenly stop for about five minutes but still had power, it started and pulled in to the station where everybody was told to get off. half way up the esculator the power went out. the attendent said there was a power surge that knock out the entire network, he new that something more serious had gone on. it took him five hours to get home from highgate to thames ditton..
    he'll be going to work the same way tommorow, he wont let the mothers beat him!
    lucky boy.....
    sad to say others weren't so lucky....

    Lucky boy.. and sobering enough, I would think.

    I recall when TWA flight 800 NY to Paris went down on that Friday night. I was over a year removed from taking that same Friday #800 flight but it still gave me pause.

    And I'm sure that all of us that ever rode the 30 bus feel the same.
