You've been busy this morning, X. Great stuff here. The piece by Sklar makes the hair on my arms stand up. My goodness.

In this morning's NYT there was an article about NYC-area battered women's shelters and the fact that both calls to abuse hotlines and occupancy in women's shelters is way down since September 11th. Two general reasons were given: women have been stating that being in a family situation at this point in time is 'better' than being alone in a shelter and (ominously) there have been reports that abusive mates are now beginning to use the WTC tragedy and prospect of future attacks to intimidate women into staying in abusive relationships.
