Intel had to evacuate its Irish based factory due to a credible bomb threat this morning.

The police were called and all 4,000 employees were evacuated.

Intel later tweeted out after employees were allowed to return to the facility.

It happened in the Land of Ire, so no surprise. at least no one got an arrow/bullet in the knee (not a skyrim reference).

Watch out for each other. Love everyone and forgive everyone, including yourself. Forgive your anger, forgive your guilt. Your shame. Your sadness. Embrace and open up your love, your joy, your truth, and most especially your heart.
