just spoke with a friend who has been with the silversteins(?) who are the owners of the building. She says That they believe 5-10K will be the total. Thankfully there were measures to shut down The trains that run beneath the tower's due to emergency procedures set up during 93 bombing. Those trains would have added tens of thousands of more casualties if they hadnt been shut. I also heard that people were probably not jumping out but getting sucked out when they got to close to the windows trying to escape the heat. I heard Morgan stanley was the direct floor of impact in one of the tower's. I also found out about several other people I know who are among the missing. I am expecting there to be many peopl eI know to have been in the building. As a Native New Yorker being born and raised in manhantten I know alot of people from my youth as well as from my business. My friend knows dozens of people already and she has seen no lists yet.

Kyrosl, >>I think there will be fewer than 10,000 dead.

I sure hope that the numbers will be small relative to the number I can up with.
