I work in the area. 7 World Trade, which collapsed about 5 :30 pm, is across
the street from my workplace. I am horror struck, deeply saddened, and
coldly angry.
My sympathies and prayers to the families of those heroic folks who responded
to the initial crashes - police, fire, medical workers - only to be caught in
the collapse of the buildings. Thousands of people gone - on the planes and
in their offices.
World Trade was very special to me for many reasons,but particularly because
of the free concerts there during the summer months at lunchtime and after
work. so much harmony and joy, gone forever.
Many businesses in the area will probably close permanently, for they
depended upon the 30-40,000+ workers in the World Trade, and on the thousands
of daily tourists.
In the face of such ugly and cruel evil, try to create something of harmony
and joy, to preserve our humanity, and in memory of those who no longer can.
But even a fresh ripe cayenne could not dim the horror of today's events.
