Thought I'd share my thoughts chronologically as the story unfolded down here.

My first though was of course sadness and worry since 5 people I know were on planes this morning , some of which were routed through NY.

My next thought was that I don't want to fly home thursday. (Who would?) Those who have fished or sailed with me know I'm pretty fearless within the limits of not being fool hardy. However , I'm not ashamed to admit I'm worried about the trip home.

Found out plane was heading to Santa Domingo and my friends were not onboard. Still sorry for the people involved but relieved its not my friends.

Found out it crashed in a residential area so some on ground are also probably hurt or worse.

Found out it was an apparrent engine failue and hoped it wasn't terrorism.

Started thinking that a terrorist could be a maintainence worker and that an unknown terrorist on the ground with a wrench was just as deadly as a terrorist in the air with a weapon.

Right now I couldn't care less about work. I just want to get home safely. I think anyone would feel the same under the circumstances.
