Have you seen this? Is anyone out there watching?
I just want to cry - all those people.
Is everyone here okay?

I was wondering the same thing? I know we have some members from the New York area. And due to high volume internet traffic, I can't get to any of the news sites that I frequent.
I just heard someone from over the partition say the Pentegon is on fire?!? Think I'm going home...

Ok, here is what I know. 2, yes 2 planes have crashed into the World Trade Center. One of which was a hijacked AA 767. Also, the Pentagon's helicopter pad was bombed.

So far, the Pentagon isn't saying anything about plane or bombing... so far it's rumored - rumor only - that a plane crashed into the Pentagon.
NY is shut down, all bridges and tunnels...
Any of our NY'ers out there.... speak up and let us know you're ok as soon as possible!

Both towers at the World Trade Center have collapsed due to at least two and now they are saying 3 planes have crashed into the WTC. There is a fire at the White House outside on the mall. The Pentagon has also been attacked. All airports have been reported to be closed. A jet was spotted in a "No Fly Zone" near the White House.

As bad as I'm feeling for the victims and their families, my thoughts and sympathies are going to all the emergency service people that have to deal with this. I know that they're going up against a no-win situation, and these people are going to be emotional wrecks afterwards. No one should have to deal with what they're going to see and deal with.
Everybody, I hope you take it easy.

Latest report is that both World Trade Towers have completely collapsed after the explosions. Some type of aircraft crashed into the helicopter pad at the Pentagon.
Just heard a report that a second airliner en route to Washington has been hijacked.
And a car bomb at the State Department.
I happened to be logged on to a news radio site before any of this happened, so have been listening non-stop.
All international flights for Washington and New York rerouted to Canada.
All takeoffs have been grounded at all airports and flights in the air have been turned back.

I just spoke to my daughter (lives in Queens but works in Manhattan, mid-town, not lower) and she tells me she isn't even bothering to try to get to work - no subways, all tunnels and bridges closed, so no buses - the entire island is shut down. We were just praying for all those poor people, I can't even begin to comprehend this or what purpose it is supposed to serve. It's inconceivable. My sister works in NY several days a week and her new office is in the Village, just before the WTC and "something" told her last night not to go in today.

I've just spoken to Andrea who is very, very upset. She is stuck in an office with no fax or Internet connection, TV or radio. She wanted you all to know how worried she is for all of you.
NYGuy, Yankeestarbuck and anyone else who has mentioned they live in Washington or New York, please check in with us, just so that we know that you are okay.
Our prayers continue.
