Okay, I’m really trying to not panic here, but I’d like Maeglin to show up now. Please.
Glad to hear about Vix and Vincent - hope Maeglin will check in (and double hope that he was in Houston per Bill).
I also checked the website of a very large (1000-attorney+) law firm formerly headquartered in WTC 2 (Sidley Austin Brown & Wood). Two friends work there, and the website claims that all personnel were evacuated safely. I haven’t heard confirmation from either friend - but I’m hoping that it’s correct, and that not many were caught inside when the towers collapsed.
Thank God, a million Thank Gods, that you are almost all okay.
I was driving to school (UMBC) when I heard…I almost rear-ended the car in front of me. I am in schock.
I’m heading out right now to donate blood. Anyone else can call 1-800-GIVEBLOOD if you need info.
My goodness. School is canceled, work is closed, and I’m sitting here going nuts. This is absolutely catastrophic.
Thank God you are all okay. If I could, I would beam myself to New York and give you all big hugs.
I’m keeping you all in my prayers.
Nym, just talked to Maeglin. He’s all right.
I just got an email from eggo, he was right down the street sitting on the roof of his bus (he does that alot) for the first impact. he was then told to move. he said he could feel the heat from the crash. thanks for your concern folks.
as I’m sure some of you know, eggo is an author, he said he will be writing an account of the event.
“Right now, I can only discribe it as unbeleveable, I thought the city was hectic before–this is pandimonium…” “…I’ve never heard such a deafening noise in my life as when that first plane hit.” (his words)
Reporting in from the Bronx, at the hospital I work in.
Blood is… really low, people.
Whereever you are, it will help if you give blood, they’re trucking it in.
I hope eggo is OK. Please let us know. Prayers for him, and everyone in New York and DC. This is so awful.
I’m glad everyone is OK. Just wanted to offer my services to anyone who needs it - I’m at work and we have a long-distance line we can use for free, so I can also make calls if needed. E-mail me at huskerdude70@yahoo.com. I hope everybody’s families and friends are OK.
thank you, god. okay, now we know vix, eggo, and maeglin are okay. anyone unaccounted for?
all i can say is help them, save them, and keep them, oh god by thy grace.
Anyone else yet to be accounted for?
Anyone heard from Thespos?
Eve is still missing, I think.
Alphagene checked in w/ people in chat - he’s ok, but working for the city and has to go help identify bodies
Anyone hear from Saxface or Eve?
THespos checking in here… Thanks for the concern, lurkernomore.
Got home around 1 PM or so after having to walk back to my apt. on the Upper East Side from downtown. When I passed 57th Street, my cell phone started working again, so I was able to verify all relatives of mine in the city are okay and accounted for.
KHespos’ new fiance works 8 blocks from the WTC. He got caught in one of the debris clouds, but he’s home safe.
My prayers are with everyone. I hope all of your loved ones are safe.
