I'm in the heart of this. I work 4 blocks from the WTC. I am at home watching TV via cable and newcasts via dISH satellite. My rooftop antenna isn't receiving anything at all. We had an office in the WTC as well. We haven't heard from those folks yet. As a retired EMT, I am used to working in disaster situations. Nothing could ever prepare me for this. I'm in shock and numb. -----Original Message----- From: deeann mikula [mailto:deeann () telerama com] Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2001 10:22 AM To: Charles Sprickman Cc: Avi Freedman; nanog () merit edu Subject: Re: Horrible world trade center crash, traffic effect On Tue, 11 Sep 2001, Charles Sprickman wrote:

few people (in pgh, PA) that i have been talking to on irc have reported ./'d news sites everywhere. (cnn.com, yahoo.com, msnbc.com, etc.) my office has been relegated am radio, which is pretty pathetic for an ISP. pretty poor performance for a network orginally designed to faciliate communication in just such circumstances. i hope that military and federal communication is faring better than the commercial sites.
All VHF TV stations except for CBS 2 are off the air, many radio stations are off the air, and it's largely impossible to get a call in. All
i assume that in nyc or dc only. we are listening to AM radio just fine... deeann m.m. mikula director of operations telerama public access internet http://www.telerama.com 1.877.688.3200
