Well, fortunately, dear Ramon, those that I know came out OK. I have family that live in upstate NY and my cousin, in particular, visits that area frequently. I was so very worried he was there. And his grandmother (my aunt) who is raising him has emphesyma and is on oxygen. Something like this could very well seriously cause her harm. We didn't hear from them for days. No responses to e-mail and all that. We FINALLY heard from them Thursday. Also, my uncle lives in New Jersey. He flies frequently on business trips and we thought he might have been on the plane that was hijacked from there. Fortunately (for him), his company had bumped him up to the Monday morning flight and he was already (and still is) in California. But even if I hadn't had family to worry about, I am VERY sensitive to others' suffering. My heart has broken several times over the last few days thinking of others' losses. My heart goes out to them and I wish that there was something I could do to make it all have never happened, but I can't. So I see them on T.V. crying for their loved ones and friends and I just HURT so much. Most of the time I can divert myself and not think of it, but when I lay down to go to sleep I see their faces streaked with tears and it just eats me up sometimes. Sorry, shouldn't have really brought this here to the cafe. Especially when I know there are others out there suffering much more than I could ever imagine.

Thanks, Sephiroth! I like to know little details like this that have been nagging at me. I can forget about it now, instead of keeping on wondering, lol!

Oh! It's so GOOD to know I'm not the only one who will let a seeming 'small' detail bug the bejeezers out of me until I ferret out an answer.

LOL! I've always been that way! Which is why I have such a LOT of trivial information stuffed into my head!
