    Who the hell can be pissed at Discovery Channel?

    Now, in all seriousness, I know a ton of people who work down there, including my dad who is across the street from that building. Hell I just rode my bike past there an hour before it started. Doesn't SEEM like anyone is hurt right now, though.

    Police say they're in negotiations. Not sure what you can negotiate. More Ted Koppel-narrated documentaries?

    But the good news is channel 4 has Pat Collins on the scene! I'm not turning my TV off.

    Here's his manifesto:

    The guy doesn't have an Arabic-sounding last name, which explains why it took so long to get this thread going.

    If this manifesto doesn't include fewer food shows he needs to be shot.

    I'm gonna take a wild-ass guess that mental illness is a factor in this incident.

    My co-worker's mom and brother work in that building. I think they got out safely. Co-worker went racing out of the office to go pick them up, but based on the traffic reports, I'm not sure he'll even be able to get close.

    Also why there aren't more posters defending him.
