It's two weeks since the horrible London bombings and today it happened again, fortunately on a much smaller scale. Three small bombs exploded in tube stations as well as one on a bus. The lack of casualties (and the relatively small scale of the explosions) obviously means that we're not dealing with suicide bombers; which means the bomber(s) are still out there. The police have been dispatched to University College Hospital, where some injured people were taken, and went in armed with flak jackets and dogs.

At CNN, Miles O'Brien and Carol Costello (in for vacationing Soledad) are anchoring with numerous correspondents in the field (looks like they have someone at every tube station) including Christiane Amanpour who speculated that this was a copycat; Miles points out that the explosive that appears to have been used was a cheap, unstable "bathtub mixture kind of stuff," the same materials used by shoe bomber Richard Reid and apparently favored by terror aficionados. Lovely.

A brief moment of comic relief occurred when they interrupted a correspondent about five minutes ago to cut to President Bush speaking; but when they did, Bush was smiling a goofy smile and talking about how beautiful Freedom was. Apparently his address to the OAS is soldiering on uninterrupted.

More importantly, per Christiane: "Twice in two weeks is certainly going to shatter people's confidence and nerves." Which is the point of terror, no? I'm definitely a little nervous. I can only imagine how people in Wyoming are feeling.
