Morning Carl, and I have to agree with you about the crash, it is such a shame.

Morning to Art, Frank, Ryan, Don, Darren, Sean, Ken, Pat, Sparky, Bob, Rob, Mike, Melissa, Dad and everyone else that stops by. Boy what a difference a couple of days can make..... two days ago we were in the mid 50's and today back in the upper 20's with a thin coating of snow on the ground.

Good morning everyone..

It is a sad day in NY after the crash..

Did you see this about one of the plane passengers??

According to CNN affiliate WGRZ-TV in Buffalo, one of the crash victims, Beverly Eckert, was the widow of 9/11 terror attack victim Sean Rooney, a Buffalo native. Eckert was traveling to Buffalo for a weekend celebration of what would have been her husband's 58th birthday.
She also had planned to take part in presentation of a scholarship award at Canisius High School that she established in honor of her late husband, the Buffalo News newspaper reported.

I heard the conversation between the pilot and the tower on the Today show and there was no indication by the voices that there were any problems.

It is a sad, sad day and my condolences goes out to those that lost loved ones on the flight and my support goes to the responders that have had to deal with this incident.
