NEVER FORGET - The 9/11/01 New Math!!!

[ryoder]

My coworker was on site at the towers that day as a consultant. She was staying in the adjoining hotel and got up late due to being out drinking too late. She was in the shower when the first plane hit. She liked to complain a lot about the hotel so she picked up the phone and gave the receptionist a piece of her mind about how bad the hotel's service was.
The receptionist told her to get out of the hotel.
She picked up her stuff and left before the second plane hit.
She walked a few miles and went into a restaurant where people didn't even know what was happening. She tried to call her husband in FL but all the lines were down.
We at work knew she was there and feared the worst.
Many of the people she was there to work with died that day.

This girl was also booted from Iran during the Iranian revolution and the fall of the Shah, due to her father being highly placed in the Shah government.

I guess she survived two Islamic militant attacks by the skin of her teeth.
