Dear Vicky-
Thank God we are all okay. Both Christine and me were caught in the dust
storm when the tower collapsed and ran for our lives. Our office is three
blocks from there so I don't know when we will able to get back. Please

Hi you guys,
Thanks for the card Bob. Campus did hold classes today, but everything was strange. The bus was totally silent. Campus always has really loud music playing, but not today. They already had a memorial up.…

Dear Patricia and Jeannie,

Thank you for these charming pictures (this is for Patricia).
Right now, I just come back to Paris, and I DO HOPE that you,
your family and
friends are OK after this terrible attack in your city. There is
no word to…

Dear Friend,

Thank you so much for your generous gift to the American Red Cross to help meet

The family that owns one of the small hotels we stayed at in Germany sent this message to us yesterday. It was so nice.

Dear Fellow Employee,

Todays terrorist attacks against New York City and our country are impossible for us to comprehend. Our thoughts, our prayers, and our support go out to the victims and their families and friends.

I know that many employees…

Hi Mom,

I got your message--I was talking to someone when you called.
I've been trying to call you but I can't get through--"all circuits
are busy." If you see this e-mail, try calling me again. Maybe
calls into the area are getting through.

We're…

hi dad and joyce.
we are fine. they evacuated our building yesterday (as they did most of downtown) and we had to walk 3-4 miles home since the subway wasn't working AND all the taxis of course were filled up. we were moving faster than the traffic…

Hi Mom,

Everything's still going well here. I've been listening to the radio a lot, but other than that, stuff seems normal. ... I spoke to Susan and Jim, and I think everyone I know in DC and NYC is okay. And Bijal in DC said last night that she…

Hi Tina,

Phones are sporadic, seems we can phone each other here in the city but have trouble calling out, and no one can call in. So internet is the way to go.

I am just logging on. Lisa was here much of the afternoon and had her lap top hooked…

Ok everyone, here is what is going on.
I don't know if everyone has heard yet (how could you not), but there was a major terrorist attack on NYC. Two planes crashed into the twin towers. We can see it from our building and BOTH towers have now…

I can't think of another word but surreal. I'm just not the type of person
who's really able to totally internalize and comprehend stuff like this
right away. Deep down I feel I'll wake up tomorrow and everything will be
normal. So odd.

You're…
