I've heard exposure to meth fumes can get you pretty sick.

It's a police conspiracy.

What is it?  "Wet" something or other?

I think it's the smoke from City Hall being piped in.  Where's Shadows?

The news report tonight said they eliminated the sheriffs bus and the prison. That leaves the school as the cause, though they tried to say it may be from somewhere else. My bets are on the sheriffs bus and we will never learn that was the source of it. Only way it can be another source is if other people from the school also get sick.

Oh what the hell, I'll take a wild guess and say it's possibly an incapacitating chemical agent they keep in case of riot, that kinda got away from them.
Lawsuits will no doubt follow.

"We hear a loud bang and we turn around and there's my friend on the floor having a seizure," 6th grader Mariah Johnston said.

Johnston says she fainted next. All she remembers was feeling nauseous, dizzy and scared.



Carbon Monoxide alone usually takes a little longer to manifest symptoms.  For it to drop you in your tracks would take an astronomical concentration.

I believe CO poisoning can cause auditory hallucinations.

It's not this condition; is it?

So that's why all the Fox News people have bronze faces. They must be messing with the white balance to turn the brown into a more golden hue.

Fox goes "full face", not just a nasal dip. :)

Poor Mariah doesn't have a very good grip on grammar yet.  I'm sure this quote will define her run for president in about 46 years if she's running as a Republican.

A female republican president named Mariah that goes to public school? Come on Conan.

The grammar seemed fine. The tense was unusual, however. It seemed more like a third person narrator. I suppose she could have dropped the first and, pausing to indicate a comma instead, but it's perfectly valid to hear something and do something and (implied see) something. You don't have to hear something, do something, and see something.
