Is ten bucks really a hardship if you want to read it
at leisure?

I got the chance to leaf through it the other day. Our library got a few
copies of it.
Nothing funny about it, but lots of things that smell to high heaven.

I think the chapter titles are hilarious: "We Have Some
Planes", "The System was Blinking Red", "Foresite --and
Hindsite. Oh, come on.... admit it. Someone had a sense of
humor.

Okay, you have a point there. I thought when I first started reading it was
going to be satire :)

"We have some planes" is a quote from one of the hijacker pilots
during the actual crime. He wanted to settle down the passengers on
the plane, but inadvertantly punched the radio button. It was
recorded by ground controllers. The recording was played at one of
the public hearings. It was horible.

I got it at Meijer for 7.50 and am currently reading it; this book is very well
written, and reads like a Tom Clancy novel in the level of detail of the
investigation. I recommend this book highly.

Ummm.. some people have either a) a laptop or b) a PDA that has enough
memory (The PDF is only 7MB and many newer PDA's have 256MB or higher!)
and a PDF reader.
In my case it's option a, and I also have access to a Xerox printer that
does 70PPM and even duplexes.
Why spend the money.

As most of you already know, I lost 295 co-workers in this tragedy, 30 of
which I knew personally who had transferred from Memphis to NYC after a
corporate take-over in 1999. One of the 'benefits' of working in I.T. was
to have every projection screen and television in our Memphis office hooked
up via satellite within minutes so we could watch our co-workers die when
the North Tower collapsed. Our former director of I.T., Gary Lasko, was in
the office where the first plane hit. It is not something I will ever
forget.
However, I am *always* gratified to report I am still in touch with a man
who was lucky enough to be late for work and arrive there a little too late.

He was our head of HR when he was in Memphis. Nice man, from Scotland,
actually :) Just talked with him last week.

My best friends daughter's best friend was in the S. Tower
(Morgan Stanley?) when it was hit and to date no remains
have been found. Her boyfriend was taking one of those
stockbroker "series something" tests on the second floor of
the N. Tower at the time. He got out safely and they are
now married.

I laughed too! As being a U.S. taxpayer, I don't consider the online version as
being "free."
We all paid for it.

I can read it at leisure in a standard electronic format by porting it
to my Palm. Why spend the ten bucks (13,29$CDN at the current exchange
rate)? Besides, I'm not a USAian taxpayer and the report is marginally
interesting only inasmuch as it makes Bush and his cronies look bad :-)

What did I miss here? "No remains have been found" and
"They are now married" does not compute.

This was "Girl child's" best friend from college, a female,
who worked for Morgan Stanley at the time.

I should have said HER remains have NOT been found (as far
as I've heard).

The one that lived was best friend's girl child's boyfriend
at the time and they got hitched last March.
