Tunnel Terror

The AP and MSNBC are reporting that one of Baltimore's two tunnels was forced to close today for a couple of hours due to terrorist threats.
The Baltimore Harbor Tunnel was closed and the Fort McHenry Tunnel was reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction
The signs always say "No HAZMATS" but no one actually checks under normal circumstances.

I guess the news is particularly unnerving to me because I travel through the Ft. McHenry tunnel 4 times a year (I know, many people travel it much more than that, but anyway. . .) My boys always look forward to that point in the trip because they think going through the tunnel is cool.
