The photograph of the bloodied and mud-covered woman being led away from the scene of transformer explosion in downtown Manhattan near Grand Central station is eerily reminiscent of the images from 9/11. As it turns out, this explosion was caused by a ruptured steam pipe, not terrorism. The uneasy feeling I had when I first saw this image was, however, a remnant of an act of terrorism almost 6 years ago.
