I thought this was a wind up at first so I went and switched on the tv - unbelievable - they've got footage of the 2nd plane hitting the other tower. What a nightmare.

Heard that a plane has shot a rocket into the pentagon rather than crashed into it. will try and confirm.
Really odd, has an e-mail from the World Trade Centre saying "we are on fire".

No.....reports are that all planes were hijacked from Boston (7 in total)....i.e. 4 planes remain unaccounted for (waiting on confirmation of this)
FTSE down the toilet
Oil/Gas price up
Dow Jones opening postponed indefinately.
Stuff like this can start a World Recession.....but let's not forget the huge number of innocent lives that have already been lost....makes me sick.
