Yorick,

So glad to hear from your brother yesterday that you are OK. I cannot even imagine what it must have been like to witness this tragedy in person. As an eyewitness, your account moved me more than any other. Please keep us up to date on your condition in the City and the City itself!

Take care!

I know it must still be very chaotic in NY. Thanks for taking time for your post.

It's nice to see the bouncing egg

wow, a first-person recollection of the whole thing from ground zero... the pictures were bad enough, i'll admit, but when its told by someone you know it takes a whole new effect. i dont think we'll ever be able to move past this, no matter how much time passes in our lives.

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

Good to hear from you, Yorick. I don't really know what to say. May God be with us all.

This tragedy should never have come to pass.

Glad Your Safe Yorick, I Saw It First When I Was Coming Home From School, I Was Well Shocked, im not trying to compare it with what yorick saw, but it wass really shocking, i saw on the arm of my chair thinking of how many people died, then I saw people throwing themselves out of windows and it really sickend me. This morning at school all the younger kids in 1st year were imatating planes and laughing and i just felt like shouting at them, everyone was talking of it leading to war and such and laughing, the closest i want to get to war is saving private ryan...

Keep to gether and don't lose hope

Yorick, I'm so glad you're okay. At first I thought I didn't know anyone in NY, then I remembered: Yorick! All the coverage and hearing stories on the news makes you sad but it hasn't really affected me closely, more like just a bystander. But your account truly brings tears to my eyes, from someone I know, even slightly.
