Roll call...

To all my friends in the Pittsburgh area:

I gather that things are kinda ugly. I know psywildfire is out of town, and it appears that adelheid_p is okay. But are the rest of you okay? And just how bad is it there right now? Are we talking Seattle '99 bad? (For all I know it isn't nearly that bad. I'm just asking for information.)

Actually I haven't been paying attention to the media much at all, other than WTOP which didn't mention it during the time I was in the car.

A friend told me that one of *her* friends in Pgh reported "Tear Gas, Rubber Bullets, Bricks through windows in the next part of the city over. Refugees." Said person's in Oakland BTW.

Yeah, well, Oakland's where all the students are and they're looking at this and going "HEY! MAYHEM! KEEN!"

So what might be the relevant "next part of the city over" from Oakland that might have gotten an influx of smashed windows? (Or it might not. But I'm curious as to where that might have occurred.)

Uptown maybe?
