Seattle’s construction frenzy turned deadly Saturday afternoon when a tower crane working on a new Google campus fell like a thunderbolt from the roof of a South Lake Union building, smashing into six cars and killing four people. — The Seattle Times
"The four-building, 607,000-square-foot project will house a new Google Seattle campus, and also include about 150 new apartments," reports The Seattle Times about the tragic incident at a South Lake Union site at Fairview Avenue and Mercer Street. "Construction began in 2017 and is set to be finished this year. Google had put its name on the building in the last few days."
Washington state officials have launched an investigation.

Why is it the Google 'campus'? A campus is a collection of buildings belonging to a university or college. Why not the Google 'cubical farm' where is you have a non-PC thought you will be fired and escorted off the premises?
What the hell are you talking about? A lot of Google employees use Apple products.
I believe he meant PC = politically correct. Still nonsensical.
I know, but comment that bad deserved an intentionally derailing reply.
