He's a fan of free wine tastings, too many tv shows to name, and eating out. David makes his living developing web applications used internally by his employer. He doesn't blog about work because he's heard too many stories about that causing workplace troubles. There's more on the about page. |

Turn on the news. This is very important.
NYC is shut down. The FAA has grounded all planes in the US. Many flights scheduled to go into New York have been diverted to Canada. Both World Trade Center towers were hit by seperate planes, and have collapsed. The Pentagon was struck by a 737. Offices in the District of Columbia have been evacuated.
A national security expert interviewed on NPR said that, in terms of terrorist activity, the only way this could be worse is if chemical or biological weapons had been used. It is important to remember that the United States treats chemical and biological weapons as weapons of mass destruction. It has been the policy of the US to respond to attacks by weapons of mass destruction in kind. And we don't have chemical or biological weapons. Let's just hope the attacks are over.
