Not good

By Heraclitus

As you've probably heard, a small plane crashed into a high-rise residential building in NYC a little while ago. According to the BBC, the FBI and Homeland Security have said that the incident does not appear to be a terrorist attack. The worst-case scenario, of course, is that the plane had a dirty bomb aboard, something nuclear or biological. I'm not an expert on NYC geography, but I believe the plane did not crash into the most densely occupied part of New York, so that perhaps is a good sign. We'll know for sure in a few hours.
