McVeigh set off a Ryder truck full of nitrogen outside a federal bldg. and the blast demolished the building and 150+ people inside of it.

Small town in Illinois founded in 1857. No stop lights in the entire town. It's 1,300 people. The weekly newspaper has been printed since 1893.
Al Capone reportedly had a few safe houses in the area.
