@Region Philbis,
This should be helpful in tracing the bombs back to their makers.

@Region Philbis,
woah. The detonators will have the builders id all over it (unless they made IED's or stole the caps from someone s magazine.
They did look like commercial explosive reports so Im hoping theyve got the caps and PETN (all that stuff will be tagged according to location of sale and records of sales).
This could be over in a few days if theyve got a bomb or two in hand.

Butrflynet: Jonathan, friends on A2K are asking about you. We've told them you're not in Boston today.

@farmerman,
They have the cell phones jammed; no one can make a call - can't make a call via cell phone - probably to avoid more bombs going off in case this is how they are programed.

@Butrflynet,

someone (boston police?) just made a statement that they are treating the JFK library fire as a related incident to the bombings...

@Walter Hinteler,
Gov. Deval Patrick just announced that a 3rd bomb exploded at JFK Library in what may or may not been a related event at or around 4:25 pm ET. No announcement or report of injuries at that incident has come in YET.

2 unexploded devices were found by security or bomb detection units at Boylston St. It is reported that they have been (harmlessly) detonated.

@Walter Hinteler,
All reports I've seen on ESPN and CNN has been 2 dead and 23 injured. Accuracy of these reports always fluctuate.

Boston Police Commissioner just reported that no additional explosive devices have been found. According to him, at least, the report that undentonated devices having been found are false.

@Linkat,
Good to see you back on A2K, Linkat. Next time, try not to make it such a dramatic return. Wink
