Several British companies had offices in the WTC. The information has come from Scotland Yard and is based on the number of enquiries about people who worked in the WTC and who have not been traced so far.
Moridin, please don't take this the wrong way but the term 'Brits' is quite offensive. It is used as an insult by the IRA amongst others. Normally I'm not that sensitive or concerned and the term is used quite freely on this board. It's just that at this time sensibilities are running a bit high.
