I'm glad to hear you are ok.
My step-son usually volunteers at the race via his fraternity. This year he choose to see the Sox game and just entered the T just before the explosions hit.
He lost his cell and we had a few tense hours trying to locate him. The campus police finally tracked him down and he called us.
