I agree.  Fascinating reading.  Many of us came to 
alt.obituaries for our information.  I heard about it first, 
though, because a friend of mine was staying in the hotel at 
the WTC.  He called me and asked what he should do.  I told 
him to get the fuck out of there.*  Then I turned on the TV. 
I hadn't left for work yet.  I can distinctly remember the 
idiot on the news station saying after the second plane hit 
that there must be serious problems at air traffic control 
this morning.

My colleagues who get to work on time were rewarded with a 
view from the window of the towers burnng and falling.

*a year later, he was able to pick up his travel bag, which 
he left behind.  It looked like it had been gone over with a 
fine-tooth comb.

JFK

5th grade.  Coming into the classroom after art class.  The 
loudspeaker was on and turned to the radio.  We figured it 
out from there.  Very dramatic.

Buddy Holly

No memory.
