here's the offical breaking news story of the goings on in Pittsburgh. I
thought you might find it interesting to see what is being said on the matter.

+++++ Begin media.relay

(The picture is of a guy that looks like he just downed about 5 cups of soycaf,
and was rushed through make-up. You have the distinct feeling that he is
either always like this, or more than likely, he just got woken up to do this
broadcast.)

Ten minutes ago, an small earthquake hit downtown Pittsburgh. While being on
the low end of the power scale, it left the surrounding buildings in ruins.
The area hit was in vicinity of one chapterhouse belonging to Universal
Brotherhood. Supposedly, the same area that was hit worst by the
earthquake was also having gang problems....

And now we switch to Kathy for a live report....

(The screen pauses for seconds. The guy holds his hand to his ear for a
second, visibly pales, and clears his throat nervously.)

Apparently Kathy is having technical difficulties. We'll try and connect up
with her in a little while.

Hmm. Where was I? Oh yes. The gang problems. Apparently Knight Errant was
called out to the scene to investigate the problems. They had sealed off the
area in order to make sure that no more innocents would get hurt by the gang
free for all. Between the gang problems, and the earthquake, there have been
no definite quotes on damage in the area. Rumors have it that the chapterhouse
is in ruins though.

(The guy looks off to the side for a moment). After this commercial break
we'll talk with scientists to find out whether we should have expected this
earthquake or not....

+++++ interrupt media.relay

I'm going to do some quick checking, but that I don't remember Knight Errant
being on scene. It was definitely someone else. But I'll check my information
on that first.

I'll get back to you in a few hours hopefully. I have a rough footage of what
went down in Pittsburgh, but I want to see if I can find any other camera
views first. ]<<<<<
