    Multiple reports say cell phone service has been shut down to prevent any possible remote detonations.

    Per Phil Hersh, WBZ is reporting that all cell service in Boston has been shut down to prevent remote detonations.

    And McVeigh's attack was carried out on the day Arkansas executed a member of the Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord militia group.

    Again we need to be cautious on speculation of possible terrorist act.

    Unbylined, unsourced story - including an incorrect casualty count - in the NY Post?

    No thanks.

    Not really. It's an act of terrorism.

    But, yeah, with regards to who did it we don't need to speculate.

    We don't know that the casualty count is incorrect at this point.

    Yeah, any numbers at this point are going to be extremely fluid.

    In the Columbine book they said that the killer's used the date 4/20 because it was Hitler's birthday.
