Watching the reports on a little black-and-white TV in the office. Smoke all over Manhattan, apparently. Ash in the streets as if a volcano had erupted. Reports that a terrorist had called in (where?) to say there were 5 targets planned. New York Stock Exchange trading suspended.

Part of the Pentagon has just collapsed. West wing of the White House has been evacuated.

Please send prayers, good thoughts, whatever you've got, to everyone involved in these incidents as well as rescue and medical personnel working to save lives.... as well as this nation... as well as the world.
