Just turned on CNN. Apparently small aircraft (plane? helicopter?) crashed into a building on 71st. I don't it's terrorism, but I was wrong in 2001.
Today is 10/11.

It's just eerie because I was Junior in HS when 9-11 happened and they announced over the school's PA system, "Two planes have crashed into the world trade center."
Everyone's first thought was, "What a couple of stupid f***ing pilots." Then you thought about it and realized that it was no accident.
