Bombing in Boston

Phew. I was just going to check in on that.

And thanks for harshing by buzz, sodacat.

Hm. I assume we're talking about the live suspect, not the brother killed in the MIT firefight last night. Will take a look. Yes, that would be correct.

It's interesting how unwilling to die this kid has shown himself to be. Not super common when you're dealing with Jihadists. I know it's usually the point to take as many people with you as possible but I don't think Dzhokhar Tsarnaev intended to be a martyr. By contrast, his brother wore explosives and would have died from the explosion if gunfire hadn't got him. Interesting.
