What a way to end the week:
NASA evacuated a building at the Johnson Space Center in Houston after an employee with a gun was seen and a shot was fired, a NASA spokesman said Friday.

A SWAT team with the Houston Police has been dispatched to building 44 on the Johnson Space Center property, a source told CNN. Building 44 holds a laboratory.

The man with the gun is white, slim in build, about 5 feet 9 inches, 50 to 52 years old and has blond hair, police said. He is clean shaven, wearing glasses and a blue-grey shirt with grey or blue jeans.
Lots of hysteria here, but really a non-event, especially for those that work off-site at JSC. Weird to drive home under four orbiting news helicopters, but other than that, the only thing out of the ordinary is that by the time this hit the cable-news cycle, every cell phone in my office rang at the same time.
