Jennifer,

It is horrible to hear about the NY tragedy and I feel for all who lost 
loved ones and acquaintances in the incident. When we lived in NY in the 
70s my husband's office was also in the WTC. Luckily the Italian Trade 
Commision later moved their NY headquarters to Park Avenue and so were 
not involved. But my French downstairs neighbor's son had an office in 
the towers and out of pure luck he was late getting to work Tuesday 
morning. He exited the subway four minutes after the first plane struck 
and immediately called his mom to assure her he was ok. Needless to say 
she was horribly shaky all day long. Also luckily nobody was yet at work 
in his office when the building came down, so although he has lost his 
entire business, no human casualties occured from this small firm.
