I guess the Marriott is next to fall. My daughter spoke with a fireman down there - he talked about bombs.

My wife mentioned that. They picked planes that had the widest wingspan, had the most fuel and hit at the best angle to get the fuel into the buildings. I can't can't even belive the pain and horror that our fellow people went through. Massive destruction is called for.

I heard on TV the World Trade Center was designed to take a full on collision with a 727.

I saw an interview with the architect of the buildings who said that they considered earthquakes and 100 year storms but never once considered the buildings being hit by a plane. He also explained that the steel beams melt after about an hour or an hour and a half of that intensity fire.
