Re: NY News



We just returned from the 16th floor of this building, which is in the
far north end of Manhattan.  We had an all too clear view of the World
Trade Center -- or what's left of them.  Since the collapse of the south
tower, the smoke has increased tremendously. Anyone who hadn't evacuated
the Financial District before this was in great danger.

All bridges and tunnels into Manhattan have been closed and there are
no  subways through downtown.  We have staff members who live in
Brooklyn and New Jersey who may not get home tonight.

This is so monsterous I have trouble getting my mind around it.
