Toronto-- In the true life stranger than fiction category, Cantor Fitzgerald Securities and its subsidiary eSpeed network are one for the books.
Cantor Fitzgerald’s New York office, on the 101st-105th floors of One World Trade Center, lost 685 employees in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks–more than any other employer. Its e-Speed electronic bond-trading network lost 125 souls.
Happily for the disciples of "Kyoto Mo" (Canadian Maurice Strong), who argues that global climate change is driven by anthropogenic gases emitted by inhabitants of the Anglosphere, a six-member eSpeed carbon-credit trading team escaped death. Their annual one-day fishing trip had to be cancelled about 8 a.m. on the fateful morning of September 11, due to alleged bad weather over the Atlantic. Can anyone confirm the weather? New York looked pretty sunny.
Hearing that the Twin Towers had been hit, the six lucky fishers hightailed it to New Jersey, to what Joseph Noviello, executive vice president said of Rochelle Park, N.J., "where we had duplicates of everything that was destroyed at our offices in the world Trade Center."
Not only did the six execs happen to have a WTC duplicate to turn to, but by napping on the floor, including one who grabbed shuteye by resting his head on an overturned coffee cup, they got an electronic trading operation up and running within two days of the tragic events. (www.usatoday.com/money/covers/2001-11-12-bcovmon.htm).
Now get this. The eSpeed new, New Jersey office provided electronic trading services in derivatives and commodities using a software package called TreasuryConnect, which had been bought from an Enron subsidiary and licenced on August 1, 2001 to a subsidiary of Saddam’s favourite bank, the infamous Global Custodian and UN oil-for-food broker, BNP Paribas.

By hitting the 89th floor of One World Trade Center, al-Qaeda’s first-time pilot hijacker of American Airlines Flight 11, managed to miss the Buttonwood Global Custodians’ offices on the 79th floor below, while killing all of their Cantor-eSpeed competitors on the 101st floor and above.
Two days later, Kyoto Mo’s dream of the Global Custodians in control of a global trade in the global commons, was born in New Jersey, under a still sky. Still full, we presume, of the 9/11 dust of death.
Almost four years later, this bizarre birth of the Cantor-eSpeed electronic trading operation seems to have morphed itself into Kyoto Mo’s "Global Hub for Carbon Commerce". (http://www.co2e.com).

Read the whole thing. I think this is an impressive investigatory and expository piece. I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but there do seems to be some rotting corpses in Chairman Mo's baement.
I believe that man is infinitely corrupt and corruptible. Even someone that projects a wholesome image can be hiding a heart of stone and evil intent. It is possible that there was foreknowledge and coverup of 9/11. With that said, there would have to be the ability to manipulate results to some extent. Those in the know would have to be frightfully cold blooded, and connected.
Please.
Stuff like this gives the word "lunatic" a bad name...
The guy that owned Cantore and S-Speed was caught up in some trouble. But it had more to do with taking care of his lost employees.
I don't believe there is any evidence indicating anything like this article alleges.
Note the expression of confused rage on his face. As opposed to constipation. I feel it really gives the man's emotions an absurd poignancy they would not otherwise have.
Please.

;) I believe you said that already. And, as I said, I don't agree with it myself, but I was told to post it, so up it goes, dammit.
You should get a new job if they force you to post this drek.
This is a slap in the face to the people who lost their lives in 9/11.
It was a summer job. And yeah, I disagreed with it at the time, and I told them so. I still do. But, a job's a job, so I put it up.
Now, I'm looking for a new summer job. Learned a lot of good things from the work experience (which is what I believe is important you get from summer jobs), and I'd like to use it to either push things I believe in, or are practical.
