Also, I Took a Leak at 9:46. That, Too, May Have Been a Factor.

This is amateur hour:

Even the markets dipped shortly after 10 a.m., though it was unclear if the alarm over the planes was a factor. Starting at 10:02 a.m., three main market indexes started dropping precipitously. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 40 points in 10 minutes, starting 10:15 a.m., before it rebounded more than 50 points.

"Unclear" is really doing a lot of work in that sentence. The reporters, and certainly the editors, should know better than to write something so unsubstantiated. What Son of Pinch et al meant to say is "there is no correlation and it was a goddamn coincidence", but I guess that wouldn't make for good copy, amirite?
