Fox News explodes (a little)

Fox News was evacuated this morning after something sort of exploded:
"Fire officials said a chemical reaction caused a small explosion in the News Corp building in midtown Manhattan. One person has been injured.

The fire department says the 10:39 a.m. incident at 1211 Avenue of the Americas occurred on the 45th floor, which houses the heating and cooling systems and other utilities for the 47-story building.

There are no offices on that floor, or on the three floors above. All three floors have been evacuated. Fire spokesman Jim Long says: "We have some sort of reaction between two chemicals that caused a slight explosion." The chemicals are unknown."
Only one person injured, thankfully, and not seriously. So let us speculate on the real cause of the explosion. Chemical reaction? Or was Bill-O just having an unusually intense ragegasm? Did someone wish him "Happy Holidays"???
