Kim Hollis: “*********The World Trade Center is gone.***********” – 10:32 a.m.
Tony Kollath: “Everybody here is expecting to be sent home at any time, but most people who live in northern va won't be able to get home.” – Editor’s note: Tony is one of several BOP residents in the Washington D.C. area
Ursine: “The Metro goes through the Pentagon at one point....”
C. Hyde: “I need a video feed! I can't get any info, every g-d news site is fried solid.....unless of course we've got some DOS attacks working in conjunction with all this.
Pretty successful start to a war, you've got to admit. Total shutdown of US markets and airlines. Total meltdown of European markets.
Christ on a crutch.”
Ursine: “...the main news links are jammed here - NYT, Washington Post, even the BBC.
This is so incredibly ghastly. This is like something out of Clancy crossed with DIE HARD.”
Musubi: “Fuck this. Someone is going to pay for this.”
Duke Fleed: “I am chilled to the bone. The horror of this is unbelievable.
I have a friend leaving for Thailand on the 23rd to spend a year and there's no way in Hell i'm letting him go.
I just remembered who the president is. This is really fucking bad.”
C. Hyde: “WBUR reports that one of the planes was American Airlines Flight 11 Boston-LA out of Logan.”
Woody: “Thank you! Any word on the second?”
C. Hyde: “No, but if i get any more news i will post it here IMMEDIATELY.”
Woody: “Thanks!
As i'm sure you can tell, since i'm a mile away from this nonsense, i can't exactly get a hold of anyone.”
Kim Hollis: “The LAX is confirmed for the Boston flight. I'm now hearing the second plane came from Dulles.”
Reagen Sulewski: “Boston to LAX flight is confirmed by Reuters.”
C. Hyde: “Another plane has just crashed in Western Pennsylvania.”
Ash: “I'm watching stuff that looks like a bad Tom Clancy novel. Two of the world's tallest buildings collapsing live before my eyes. Unbelievable carnage. My voice cracked up as I called Esther in to look at it, much like the CNN's reporters is as I type.
I hope that everyone is safe and there is no more to come. I'm on the move so I can't stay.
My God.
Peace everyone.” – Editor’s note: Ash is a resident of England who was on vacation in Belgium at the time of the attack.
David Mumpower: “Pet(ronella)? I know we're very low priority milady but please check in if/when you can. We're just worried because we care about you.
(thank God you're fine, Woody...don't even feel like joking about it right now)”
Woody: “Thanks. just to give you all some perspective on how terrified i am right now...
