Where's Spider-man when you need him?

The Roosevelt Island Tram, as seen in the first Spider-man movie, has been stuck with 72 people on the two cars for about five and a half hours. They are just now beginning to take people off, into a smaller, cagey car. They've pre-empted regular programming on Channel 7 here in New York to cover the "crisis." They've got a kid named "Dax" or "Zack" on the tram on a cell phone on the air now. He seems fairly upbeat.

They've talked about needing food, but if I was stuck on a tram, which I don't think has a bathroom, I don't think I'd want to eat anything...

You'd think they'd have some sort of plan for something like this that would take less than 5 hours.

The "King Kong" ride at Universal Studios is a simulated ride on the Tram; although for some reason the tram goes all over the city in the ride...

What about Boston Legal though? Will we ever get to see tonight's episode? Shatner!
