Default Re: War....

On the average day the WTC has 50k ppl in it. Can only hope that the morning time reduces the numbers drastically.... But somehow I don't hold out to much hope...

rough estimates say possibly 35k.

PS: US military is on Threatcon Delta... highest level...

<EDIT>

Just to make the distinctions clear...

THREATCON NORMAL - No threat of terrorist activity is present.

THREATCON ALPHA - There is a general threat of possible terrorist activity against installations, building locations,
ooc and/or personnel, the nature and extent of which are unpredictable.

THREATCON BRAVO - There is an increased and more predictable threat of terrorist activity even though no particular target has been identified.

THREATCON CHARLIE - An incident has occurred or intelligence has been received indicating that some form of terrorist action is imminent.

THREATCON DELTA - A terrorist attack has occurred or intelligence has been received that action against a specific location is likely.

Further this is not Defcon. Defcon is a military alert readiness in the face of possible war... Threatcon is security levels and anti-terrorist actions.
