I live in the DC metro area, and actually work on 
the national mall (between the white house and 
capitol building); and I have to tell you, it was 
absolute chaos in DC today.

The local news stations have been covering the 
crash at the pentagon nonstop since it happened. 
The plane actually took out an entire side of the 
building, penetrating all the way from the 
outside wall to the inner courtyard. And as if 
the crash itself was not bad enough, a collapse 
of that part of the building later occurred 
too...At last check, the news programs here have 
reported multiple casualties as a result of this 
terrible tragedy. 

My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and 
their families, both in Washington and in New 
York.
