[AGL] half an hour late and it didnt finish the job

[Fontaine Maverick]

Yeah, we (me, Kathy Doyle, Houston & Dian)watched from the front lawn of 
Dave Richards old building at 7th and Nueces. There was a nice crowd in the 
hundreds there and on down  towards sixth- a sort of party atmosphere - it 
was exciting to see it and hear the series of explosions - quite loud - but 
the pile of rubble was much taller than I expected. Did they indeed not 
finish?
