MOTM

It took me about thirty hours, but I was able to find my friend who
was on floor 68 of tower two at the time of impact. She was dazed
and disoriented, but not seriously physically hurt. It took thirty
six hours or so to do, but it finally happened, we spoke and I was
able to register her on the list of recovered missing persons, watch
the number tick down by 1. There is hope in all of this, through the
sleeplessness and headaches and shortness of breath, there is hope
and the affirmation of a shared humanity whose existence I had all
too often doubted amoung my fellow Americans. Thanks to all, both
for your ongoing support and goodwill as well as your tolerance in
listening to my experience.

It is good to hear from our NYC MOTM buddies. Great news about your friend
Mike. Sadly, many will not get such good news. Hopefully some of our other
NYC friends will find a way to touch base eventually. We heard from Mark S
day one that he did not go to work that day. However, the Amex building
where I think he works does not appear to be in good shape according to the
TV reports.

I got something in my E-mail at work today which was beautiful and just
added to the total global outpouring of sorrow and support toward America.
Someone (I think a US serviceman) sent photos home of hundreds of people in
Kosovo lighting candles, and waving American flags (many crying in empathy)
and such in support of those who have lost so much.

Hi, my name is Rob Schwimmer--
I don't yet own any MOTM but have been on the
list for a while. I live in the East Village and my
family and friends are all intact (just in case
anybody on this list knows me...)
Glad everyone else seems to be ok

i've been kinda silent here lately, i'm just starting to get into the swing
of things today. ironically, this morning was the lowest point for me. i
think my head was all into where this is all going...that this could be the
beginning etc. *shiver*

in these last few days i have had sustained, focused anger, disbelief and
grief of course, tears and depression. now i guess i'm just trying to get
on with whatever it is i do...wanted to give all my gear to my roommate
today and spend the rest of my life bartending or something in some
peaceful tropical place. at thirty, i guess i feel too young to 'deserve'
that just yet. or something.

to be clear, i do not work in the world financial center bldg. i work on
the 22nd at 40 wall street, kiddie-corner to the stock exchange and
adjacent to the geo washington memorial ex-town hall, i think it is. so i
should be able to get into the office next week, but may be working from
home a lot more in the future....

it's amazing how heartfelt this whole mess is, even to those far away who
can't smell the awful burning plastic and (not) hear the eerie missing
traffic that we take for granted as the noise floor of manhattan.
