The down town area of Pittsburgh is pretty much locked down. From what I understand you can't even drive down town right now. We got world leaders that have arived there today. I am sure gald I have no reason to go down town at this time. Many of the businesses have boarded up and closed during this event. Pittsburgh has money problems and all this did was drain tax money for the extra security. The city of Pittsburgh and the police department have been running drills for a month now on riot control. I think this whole thing has been a real pain in the ass for Pittsburgh with no real return for all they have to do. Dale
