    Paris is in turmoil at the moment. Multiple coordinated terrorist (it seems) attacks.

    Granted, it's a big City. I suspect though, the sirens are keeping you up.

    I clicked a news link saying 18 reported dead. The first thing that pops up is that the number was updated to 60. Holy hell...

    Holy Shit. The Eagle's of Death Metal were playing at the Bataclan. Reports say everyone in the band was killed.

    And then there are reports that they are fine. Dammit Dammit Dammit.

    Tactical Nuke time.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Some people I know in the biz say some of the crew and all of the band got out. Unclear on details obviously. At least one Front of House guy unaccounted for. :(

    That's only do-able when "they" all conveniently gather in one place.

    I honestly believe Papa is fine but he is likely trying to find out about his own people there.

    Not sure, I haven't really looked at where everything happened. Five, maybe 10 miles.

    Dang, now a train running high-speed tests (220 mph) on a new route ran off the tracks (accidental). About 10 dead so far. All railways employees.

    How fast those trains usually go?
    I was there this summer cruising at 90mph on A4 and train passed by like I was parked. I though he must have been going 200 or so.
