2001-09-11 - 11:00 p.m. http://www.gnome.org/~drc/jeepo/nyc/TOWER1_IMPACT.jpg The plane that went down in PA had a woman onboard who locked herself in the bathroom with her cellular phone - she was telling authorities about the hijacking when the plane crashed and killed her - that is the only way the authorities knew for sure what plane went down in PA so quickly, she gave her flight number did she give her name? http://us.news2.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/p/ap/20010911/capt.1000242863terrorist_attacks_ny161.jpg In the nightmarish minutes before the two towers fell, desperate people could be seen jumping from the highest floors that were in flames. ``Bodies were just dropping, jumping. They were jumping like, first it was two. And, then, another one, and another one. I couldn't look,'' said one eyewitness. A man who answered the phone on the trading floor of broker Cantor Fitzgerald located near the top of the World Trade Center said, ``We are f+++ing dying!'' when asked what was happening. There was screaming and yelling in the background.A follow-up call was not answered. have i said how surreal this day is? how wrong it feels. how little i feel i can do and how much i feel for those who chose to jump rather then burn in the towers before they fell what an odd time we didint even know how loaded from both sides of time it was on television. its completely beyond my comprehension. and I dont know whats up with bryan and i cant stand dealing with the idiots form other parts of country talking about bombing back now- who? and you arent the targets- its a very weird place to be. and all i could do was sleep for a while- just couldnt deal any more with the sight or idea or what kept going through my head of the people on the planes or in the offices or who called in sick today or the tourists or the hatemongers or anyone. just shut up and deal with all the kids from my moms school whose parents work in the city and arent coming home. or the kids from nyc who havent told anyone yet that no one came home tonight. or the people still trapped. the 100 + firefighters who were trapped between the two buildings when the second collapsed. we will find bodies of them- but not all from higher up i think- and this is a long dark night where we'll wake up to a much colder morning. ``I started going down the steps,'' said one survivor. ``There was a woman in a wheelchair. I got her into a strap of the wheelchair and just carried her down the steps, down 68 floors, man. We got lost on the fifth floor. It was chaos.'' 10.11.01 -bsg- prior mistakes future mistakes
