#1 Mike - you don't need to add it but I heard the following story this summer on a cruise from the man and his wife at the next table.

The man was an auditor for the city colleges of NYNY. His office was across the street from one of the buildings. After the first building was hit, he tried to call his wife on his cellphone to tell her he was OK but reception was bad in his office so he left it and entered a hallway where he was able to contact his wife. As they were talking the second plane hit. The engine from the plane smashed through his office window and hit his desk head on. If he had not tried to call his wife he would have died.

He told me the moral to him was - "Always tell the wife what you are up to!"
