Towers of Turmoil and Burning Buildings


I just watched the movie of United 93. The special features were grueling. The actors met the actual family members and it was horrific listening to them laud their family members who were on the flight. How "alive" they were. How "vibrant" and "how much they had to offer the world. I wonder about the child blown to smithereens by the Hezbollah and the Israelis that is dead in the rubble. Is their contribution to have been any less? Are they loved any less by thier family? Its all too much I think.


My nephew and I had heard the same thing about the use of cellphones on airplanes at 30,000 feet, simply put, they dont work. So, who made all these desperate calls from the planes? Strange as heck. I haven't heard that anyone made any particular cellphone calls from the two planes that hit the towers.

Who knows? Its sobering. Its ugly. Its our wonderful world.
