Besides the lose of life, I still think about that absolutely magnificent,
huge, bright and beautiful Miro tapestry wall hanging that used to hang in
the lobby of Tower Two. Any of you who went to the conference last year in
NY, and also to the observatory at the World Trade Center, or to get tickets
at the ticket booth at the WTC, might remember seeing it. What a waste- 70
million $$$ worth of art destroyed- still also mourning that!
