Homelessland Security

If you can't spare some change for a cup of coffee, then the terroists have won.

A homeless man has come forward with two sets of confidential ground zero blueprints that he says were dumped in a Lower Manhattan trash can. Rather than bring them to the authorities, the man brought the Freedom Tower plans to the New York Post, which says the 150-page schematic is marked: "Secure Document — Confidential". Clearly, he trusts the people who print his home bedding above the ones who harrass him.

The documents are dated October 5, 2007, and contain plans for each floor, the thickness of the concrete-core wall, and the location of air ducts, elevators, electrical systems and support columns. Y'know, stuff that could be useful if you wanted to build a building...or destroy it.

Really, I love New York.
