She said, "New York City is is a place where ordinary citizens will see danger and run TOWARDS it. All the first responders in this case were passenger ferrys and tour boats, not emergency crews. Some were alongside the plane by the time it stopped moving. Passengers on the ferrys assisted in getting people aboard and giving their own clothing to try and warm up the extremely cold and wet folks from the plane. I only watch Ms. Maddow once or twice a week, but she is definitely the cat's meow.

Eisboch I heard a guy say it a few years ago. A few days after 911 I was watching a firefighter who had pulled folk out of the towers before they went down.. He is the way it went down: About New Yorkers The fellow was telling a story about being in the hospital interviewing a firefighter injured on September 11. He said that it was "just like in a movie". At one point he (the interviewer) thanked the fallen hero for going into the building with no concern for himself or his own safety. "The firefighter lifted his head, and with a thick NY accent said", "Whadidya expect, I'm a New Yorker". We had a Japan airlines 747 land short of SFO years ago. First people to it were small boats fishing the bay. Luckily the water is about 55 degrees, and the air was warmer on the day. But people help out in most areas of the country. NOLA excepted. |
