(CBS) — The Chicago Fire Department says a fire in the John Hancock Building Saturday afternoon is out and one person has been transported to a hospital.

Well, we all can assume the Hancock Center will be coming down very soon.
I assume the firemen have evacuated the building already.
Office fires can bring down steel structures according to NIST.
I wonder if the building updated it's insurance policies?

Except for one small, ever so minor detail...
What is it you ask? C'mon, you know you do...
OK, fine...
An airplane didn't hit it... *gasp*
Yep, I'm just amazed it didn't fall down, either.

Fire is out. No imminent collapse into its own footprint. No melted steel beams.

OMG! According to my government and NIST, that building is in imminent danger of collapsing into its own footprint in a couple hours! RUN!
