We spent the day at the Berkeley Marina. It wasn't the worst place to be. 

TBS appeared to be the only news outlet to get a close look at the bomb technicians at work. No other media outlets were inside the perimeter.

Forgive the second email today: The situation seemed unusual enough to warrant it.

### In case you missed it

We added several details to our AM story after publication. A few more may be forthcoming.
