Al Queda may or may not have something going on but if they want to make an impact it's going to have to be better than a few bombs going off.

The attitude of the British public (at least outside the capital) seems for the moment to be one of disinterest. Maybe I'm misjudging the situation but it seems very much to be an attitude of been there, got the T-shirt, and I'm not going to let it effect my life in the slightest.

It has however been noted that now would be an excellent time to get a decent discount on the bus tours around the capital.

LONDON (AP) - Explosions struck the London Underground and a bus at midday Thursday in a chilling but far less bloody replay of the suicide bombings that killed 56 people two weeks ago.

Only one person was reported injured in the nearly simultaneous lunch-hour blasts, police said, but they shocked and disrupted the capital and were hauntingly similar to the July 7 bombings by four attackers.

Police Commissioner Ian Blair said forensic evidence from Thursday's bombings could provide a significant break'' in the latest attacks.

He also said it was not clear if the two sets of attacks were connected.

Panicked and screaming commuters fled the three affected Underground stations, sometimes leaving behind their shoes. Firefighters and police with bomb-sniffing dogs sealed off nearby city blocks and evacuated rows of restaurants, pubs and offices.

Prime Minister Tony Blair appealed for calm and said it was too early to tell who was responsible.
