Someone needs to print this out, wad it up tightly in their fist and hit Sen. Hillbilly with it square in the nose...So much for her rant about faulty design...Let's see what she says now...

Oops I posted the same article almost at the same time. Sidebar moderator I now know why my duplicate post was deleted.

On the north tower's 92nd floor, one floor below the crash, 69 employees from Carr Futures found themselves trapped. Most, perhaps all, survived the crash. But, in phone calls to loved ones, the employees reported that the stairwells were impassable.

They crowded together in corner rooms as the floor filled with smoke. People appear to have lived until the building fell. By phone, a mother told her son that the south tower had collapsed.

After I thought I had heard all the horriffic stories about 9/11, here is another one. OBL is pure evil.

As usual the article ignores the 6,000 to 10,000 people who died Sept 8, 1900 in Galveston TX. These people didn't die over several days, they died in an hour or less as the storm surge moved ashore over Galveston Island. It was several days before the world learned of this tragedy.

Great article, I was going to post it myself. I am sure there will be even more amazing details as time goes by.

Click here if you want to see my pictures from that awful day. I have only seen one other guy with pictures from as close as I was. The page will take a while to load since it is about 10 megs and poorly designed, but I have some pretty good shots. I have a much friendlier version to publish with the complete story, but my web space is locked until Earthlink figures out what broke.

One man, for example, stayed on the 27th floor with a disabled friend; both died.

Wow. I've always cursed my broad shoulders and stocky "strong as an ox" build; it's hard to keep in shape enough not to look overweight without wasting a lifetime in a gym or on a track.

Not anymore. If I'm ever in that situation, my disabled friend's going up on my shoulders and we're gonna slide down together!

Despite their "detailed analysis", USA Today totally neglects the number of people that jumped to their deaths. Two people that I know who worked nearby think there were at least a couple dozen.

I just get sad and mad all over again whenever I think about those poor people.

Great info - thanks for sharin' !!

...any ideas about the possibility of the Towers being rebuilt....and, if so, will they be built to as high of construction standards?

(Not just 'to codes', but well above)

This can't be true! Senator Clinton has already told us about the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy to murder all of the people in the WTC by substandard design and construction.

Doesn't anyone appreciate the long term developing plot going back to the 1960s? We must investigate...gurgle...this vast rightwing conspiracy!....gurgle....gurgle....

Incredible! Thanks for posting (you, too, Dane!)
