_Through a Night of Horrors..._ by Casey Edward Greene and Shelly Henley Kelly



I appreciated Holly's kind comments as well.

On an archival note, _Newsweek_, October 15, 2001, has an article,
"Shooting to the End," on Bill Biggarts, who took photographs of the
World Trade Center attacks.  He was photographing the fires in both
towers when he died in the collapse.  However, his equipment and film
survived.  The images are haunting, as well as horrific.

Dr. Bernadine Healy, CEO, American Red Cross, commented in _Newsweek_
that what she saw at the site of the World Trade Center was worse than
what Clara Barton saw in Galveston in 1900.  (Probably, the two events
can't be easily compared since the destruction in Galveston was spread
out, whereas in New York City it was compressed.)  Dr. Healy came to
Galveston for the centennial of the 1900 Storm, September 8, 2000.
