Apparently there are 3 planes in question, one in Newark and two Phila. Those 2 are only about 20 miles from me. :mad:

Now they are saying that the NJ one has been cleared, but the other two are being investigated by the FBI. And something similar seemed to happen in the UK today, but not sure.

I am so sick of these mother****ers keeping us on edge all the time waiting for another mass killing here in our own country. Hope it all turns out to be a mistake, but who the hell knows anymore.

Man the media is hyping this up. Something tells me this an over-reaction to nothing, and I hope I'm right...

I don't think you have to believe the hype to recognize that this is a major story, more significantly I'm glad they're hyping it.

While I'm sure there isn't any immediate danger it seems pretty clear that this is a probe of our defenses. The more the media "hypes" this, the more clear it will be to the originators of the package that they're going to have to find another way.
