[quote=Anonymous] I had Good Morning America on TV, not really paying attention to it, while I cleaned up and our six-month-old daughter was nearby. The show reported the first plane hitting the tower and the assumption was that it was a horrible accident. Then shortly after the second hit and the clear deliberateness of it. At the time we had friends who worked in the Pentagon and I held my breath in shock until that news hit the TV and then I yelled, and the baby burst into tears, poor thing. I realized how roads out of DC were utterly jammed, and my brother and SIL were in a DC hotel, supposedly coming out to our house in the suburbs later that morning on their way home along I-95 to NC. Not a ton of cell phones commonly used then but my brother had an early one and somehow got through to me eventually to say they were in the traffic jam and just would head straight home to NC instead of coming to VA. I'd already phoned my mom, whom I knew would not have a TV or radio on until at least 7 p.m, as was her routine. I had to tell her repeatedly that the towers were entirely gone, because she just could not grasp that structures that massive were simply vanished.[/quote]
