Victor, this article includes a quote from a MSDW exec who was on the 73rd floor of the south tower when the north tower was hit by the first plane. "I was in No. 2 on (floor) 73 when No. 1 got hit," said John Hoekman, a senior vice president who works for Morgan Stanley. "Most of us in No. 2 got out before the second (plane) hit. Some of the folks here watched people jumping out of No. 1 and hit the pavement below. The tragedy is beyond words." rd.yahoo.comhttp://www.marketwatch.com/news/yhoo/story.asp?source=blq/yhoo&siteid=yhoo&dist=yhoo&guid=%7BEA8F4DB7%2DE769%2D4A82%2DBCCC%2D2579269EFFA4%7D Obviously he got out. Though many others clearly did not, we can hope and pray that most who were below the initally* damaged floors left immediately as he must have. One would hope that, considering the earlier WTC bombing, those working there would take evacuations very seriously.
