After hearing the gigantic crashing BOOM and children in the schoolyard screaming in terror, I EYEwitnessed, and watched the horror unfold from the window of my apartment that faced the North Tower. I saw the smoking black HOLE, and screamed, "They're ALL dead. Oh my god. Oh my god. It's another bomb!"

It was 8:50 AM according to my watch, and I called my boss to tell him that I wasn't coming into work, because something horrible happened to the Trade center, and I won't go down below ground into the subway tunnels.

When the first tower collapsed, the ground quaked and I felt the vibrations on the 9th floor of my apartment building. It just broke my heart to see a single tower standing there alone. Worse still, when the 2nd one collapsed too, and we couldn't locate my sister until the afternoon. People like me do not want the Freedom Tower to rise in the horizon line where the twins stood once. We just want a memorial.

Here's the actual official time line:
American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the north side of the North Tower of the World Trade Center (WTC) at 8:46:30 a.m. local time (Eastern Daylight Time).
United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into the South Tower at 9:02:59 a.m. EST.
American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon at 9:37:46 a.m. EST.
United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in a field in southwest Pennsylvania just outside of Shanksville, about 150 miles northwest of Washington, D.C., at 10:03:11 a.m. EST.
