MBTA officals doubt they will find more remnants along the way, as they begin construction on the Red Line extension to Alewife, but such occurences are not unusual.

The plaintiffs' argument: the park management negligently failed to warn the victims against standing where lightning might strike. The most amazing thing about the plaintiffs' position is that it is not at all unusual...
