I live in the Philadelphia area, but communte to NY for business several times a week. One of the people I do business with had his office on the
upper floors of the World Trade Center - well above where the planes hit. I was not in NY that particular day, but immediately thought that my friend
had perished.
I found out later that he had not died, and was in awe.
He told me that the only reason that he was alive, was due to the fact that he had to go all the way downstairs to smoke a cigarette. He to this day
quips that he will NEVER give up smoking!
