I saw the report last night (right now is the night after that for me).
but at the time there was no casualty report. I'd say anyones ballpark figure of the train explosion would be just as accurate as that 3000 number.

South Korean media tends to beleive and report anything, confirming stuff is not a consideration. I remember a year ago agrueing with a girl about the state of thier media, just then a report came on the tv that bill gates died (they showed a pictures of stock markets plumeting, and people going crazy, and everything) five minutes later, they retracted it and showed a fake cnn webpage that said bill gates died. . . they had been fooled by it,and pretty much pulled from file pictures of the people at the stock market going crazy. This was the same fake page someone posted here a year before.

I kinda won that arguement by default I guess.
