Location: 2012. Everything changes after this year :) <3 so can't wait.
At least 12 injured now, and one witness on tv was talking about a man running toward them with his skin all burned.
man that scene looks scary with the steam and debris coming out like a geyser...man seeing the news broadcast with all those people running like hell away from it, it was horrible.
My mom has a condo apt on Park and 39th i wonder how far debris travelled from the original area...looks like it deposited over a few blocks' radius
well i dont think we are coming into manhattan now. we were initally planning on it.
pray there are no more serious injuries.

A 24in. steam pipe installed in 1924 is what burst, due to cold water getting into the pipe. Those that know how pipes work, they expand and condense with temps.

gah! finally made it home after nearly 3 hours.
wasted a lot of time sitting on the 5 train downtown as the conductor's announcements went from "train delays due to congestion" to "train delays due to police investigation @ grand central" to "train delays due to building collapse."
i gave up and left the train station @ spring street. heading towards 14th & 7th i passed by whatever hospital that is down there and there were quite a few people on stretchers who looked merked the fuck up, debris and all.
i've definitely gotta move soon. the distance between where i live, and where i work/play is annoying in situations like this.
as per Mayor Bloomberg's press conference, one fatality at Bellevue due to cardiac arrest from incident.. sad.

Bloomberg or one of his OEM staffers reported:
- 1 person at Bell or Cornell with third degree burns to 90% of body
- 1 person with 60% burn to body..
jesus christ, like how you empathize with people in situations like this? to be running for your life, burned/burnING, screaming in pain.. it's so traumatic..
