I' ve never heard of there being a day care center in the Twin Towers. Only the federal government (see Murrah Building in Oklahoma City) does stuff like that. I think most of the children killed were passengers on the planes. Thank God it wasn't "Take Your Daughter To Work" day.

I heard there was at least two day care centers located in the WTCs.

One of the news reports mentioned a day care center being in one of the towers.

There was a day care center, but it was not in the towers. It was in another building in the complex. I just don't remember whether it was 4, 5, or 6 WTC. They were 9-story buildings on the same block.

I was in and out of the Trade Center literally hundreds of times throughout the 80s, 90s and '00-'01, including when the Feb.'93 bomb went off. I have no recollection at all of a Day Care facility, nor do I recall ever seeing people with young kids headed toward one.

As for the number of jumpers, I'd quess over 100 based on friends and family who were eye witnesses. There were people jumping or falling from number one even before number two was hit and both buildings stood burning for an hour or so after that.

I can tell you this, in 36 hours of working the line and digging inside the pit on the 12th and 13th neither I nor my oldest son who was with me saw anything left but ash...nothing (with one grisly exception) that was recognizable as human remains.

When I was working at 2 WTC in '84-'85, the State of New York had offices in the middle third of the building (44 to 78?). I was on the 89th floor (Ebasco).
