They dodged falling debris and moved quickly out of the area, but one of those guys was traumatized enough that he has truly never been the same. They didn't get home for six days, and of course all their stuff in the hotel was lost. Our company had two people wounded at the Pentagon. It touched folks down here far differently from the way it did New Yorkers, but it was panic-inducing even remotely. At least for me it was.
We still have to fight just to get federal money in NYC to prevent terrorism. It's a disgrace. If we have to do it ourselves, we will, but the ragheads better be ready to meet Allah, or whoever they expect in the next life, because fear turns into anger - and that's something that a few have already experienced from us, which should serve as a warning of worse things to come.

The fire next time will not be small.

G'night!
