Reading this thread gives me chills.
I was in fifth grade at Northern Hills Elementary in Edmond and we were all on the playground about to go inside to begin school. The fifth grade class was to go on a field trip to the see the Philharmonic at the Civic Center. Several classmates felt the jolt, but I did not. Soon after going to our classroom our teacher, Mrs. West came in and told us that we would not be going on the field trip--that there had been an explosion downtown at the courthouse. She told us that we were the only class that had been enformed about the explosion. We weren't allowed to watch it on TV, but I remember sitting in front of the TV for hours when I got home. There were also rumors that our school had recieved a bomb threat, but we were never evacuated.
