Re: Today

[Jane Palmer <jspalmer@BELLSOUTH.NET>]

At our high school, almost all tvs were on all day.  In the media center
we had 4 sets running constantly, with groups in and out  watching
quietly for the most part. The administration even sent a memo to
teachers advising them to either keep their television on or to
frequently update the students.Office telephones rang off the hook and
parents came in a fairly steady stream to pick up their children. After
school activities and tonight's Open House were cancelled.
Downtown businesses sent workers home early, all the area malls closed.
I was one of the last to leave my school - about 4:30 - and was amazed
at  the super light traffic. Many churches held prayer vigil services
this evening.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all those who've lost their lives or
loved ones  in this day of  unimaginable tragedy.
Thanks to those who've sent the book suggestions, research links,
updates from NY and Washington areas and, especially, the caring
messages from the worldwide LM_NET community.
