It’s worth a lot. Thanks for reassuring us. Glad your family is fine.
friends and family are all ok
if anyone needs to talk, please feel free to give me a shout. lord knows i probably won’t be able to sleep for awhile.
Cajunman, thanks for your concern about my sister. She’s fine, thank goodness. She left for her home after the first crash and got there unscarred.
I just got home from work, and this is the first thread I’ve checked. I’ve been worried sick about all you NYDopers all day, and am relieved to tears to find out everyone’s OK. Y’all are in my thoughts on the rough days to come.
Especially you, Alphagene. I can’t imagine what you’ll have to go through on the job. Here’s wishing more strength to your fine strong self.
But I’ll check in too, FWIW.
Spent most of the day trying to find my SO, who needed to be walked home after dental surgery. Walked down the FDR drive, agape at all the fire trucks coming in from towns that are at least an hour away.
I watched the second tower go down. From my street corner.
New York is one hell of a city, though. People are pulling through.

My brother-in-law saw the second plane hit as he was walking to work. Unbelievable. I figured that the best thing to do was to give blood or stay out of the way. The blood lines were very long so I spent the day in front of the TV. I did walk outside and see the huge smoke clouds which was a chilling sight.
Wow - I’m so glad to hear all the NY Dopers are okay - I’ve been worried about you guys all day.
Alphagene - I’ll be thinking of you - what a horrible thing, but so necessary for the families. I admire you for being able to do it.
So has anybody heard from SaxFace…?
I’m pretty darn sure she’s out of town. She hasn’t been posting much lately. In any event, her office was in midtown, well north of the incident.
Clearing up a lingering worry, Lux Fiat has posted that NYPD officer and board poster DreamWorks is on duty and patrolling elsewhere in the city.
SaxFace is not in NYC so she’s fine.
Wow, you guys are all amazing.
I am fine, although currently in DC which just isn’t the same as being in Iowa. This whole thing really sucks.
I was especially worried about manhattan (the mod), Vix and CMKeller, because I know they all worked downtown. I’m glad to hear so many SD NYers are accounted for.
Alphie, good luck, buddy.
God, I hate to ask this, but have we heard anything more about Cartooniverse?
Well here’s my “official” check-in. I wish I had internet access at home, or I would have been able to confirm about Maeglin.
Once again, I don’t think I’ve quite calmed down from the relief I feel that all of you NY Dopers are ok (especially vix, who will be held personally responsible if I have a post facto heart attack <insert nervous laugh here>.
Everyone involved with the events downtown are in my thoughts today.
Special thoughts for Alphagene as well. That’s got to be one of the most difficult jobs I can imagine right now.

I thought that minty green worked in NY? Someone tell me that this isn’t true.

A <BUMP!> for Cartooniverse.
Tubadiva just told me she just found out that Cartooniverse is fine. But she didn’t give me details.
Good enough. If I can’t believe her, who can I?
Thanks!
Oh thank goodness! Details aren’t necessary, just the fact that Cartooniverse is ok is enough.
Thanks, Jill.
