in work. had to pass through penn station where the guards and machine guns were out and about in full force. k9's out as well... (they are all usually there - but today more than normal...) and the "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE TRANSIT POLICE REQUEST THAT ALL PASSENGERS REMAIN VIGILANT AND REPORT ANY AND ALL SUSPICIOUS PACKAGES AND ACTIVITY" announcement that was repeated over and over.
i sat next to the Emergency Window on the train. just in case.
out on the street there were cops - complete with clipboards - checking each bus lined up on the sidewalk.
neil has posted a link to Nosemonkey. liveblogging about the attack.
(can i tell you that i was a bit freaked out when a double decker tour bus drove past me at 35th and 7th and i thought to myself "what if they blow THAT thing up? what if they have it in for double decker busses?")
