[quote="Captain Wilkins":a0813]New York is having a really bad run at the moment :P
I mean, first there's September 11, then that Plane's engine falling off and crashing, and the refinery that went up, now this...

How's morale over there? It must be taking a hammering, surely?[/quote:a0813]

I tell you what, I'm still watching the World at War DVD set, and I just got done with the second DVD. the second one has a one-hour section all on arial bombing, and ends with the attacks on Britian using the VX rocket. The video for that reminded me so much of Sept. 11th, with people tracking the rockets with their cameras from flight to explosion, and the aftermath. I felt such sorrow for those people, as from Sept. 11th I knew what it was like to be attacked on your homeland like that.

anywho, the morale is fine, IMO. Ferry service is working again as of 5AM this morning, and I dunno what the deal is with that pier.

On the lighter side, I passed by Ground Zero (as I do every morning), and saw they put a large peice of the structure up. When I first saw it, it almost looked like the front of a stage for a concert or something. It's on the corner of Vesey and Church street. I'll see if I can find a pic.
