People are alive under the rubble

CNN reports that people are using cell phones to call for help.

My God, my stomach just did another back flip. Those poor people. I wish I could go up there and start throwing rubble around and save people. I sure hope every swingin dick available is puttin out effort up there.

What makes me sick is my whole damned office carried business on as usual today. My boss has really proven himself to be very small minded today. How can people act like this didn't happen? Is their petty little business life so huge a part of their existence that they can't bear to have it infringed upon? What is at the root of such bullshit thinking?

we have become a country driven by, motivated by greed....plain and simple. The biggest issue is how to recover before the economy is affected, that's all the media outlets were talking about the world markets and shit.

Saving the people are the main priority. But the attack on the trade center was also an attack on the world. If they wanted to strickly injure only american intrests there are many other targets they could have chosen. This one was deliberate to hurt everybody.

I'm not sure what channel you are watching, 99% of the talk is about the victims and devistation, they talk about the economy because they should talk about the economy and who is responsible, they have been talking for 16 hours now and need to talk about everything.

All msnbc and cnnfn did was a cut away to market news very breifly last night. Then it was back to a focus on this tragedy.
