Hi Calaya (or Terri?),

You know, I felt this too. I sat there some 200 miles west of the WTO and 
thought that someone with a sick sense of artistic taste that morphed the 
image, or tricked us using kids planes. In the seconds before they 
impacted, they looked like kids toys. Even the blast was reminiscent of a 
Hollywood film I would have paid money to see  ...

But down to the poem. I like its shortness and the child element. One image 
we saw here that is burnt onto my brain forever is the picture of business 
men stepping off from the 100+ floor. Suited, booted and making a decision. 
Their jackets flapped. Their trousers filled with air. They seemed to keep 
upright before spinning. I would like to see some more detail with the 
miniature men. Quick thought crept in-they looked like Mary Poppins in the 
closing credits.
