The news was full of reports of people who missed or changed flights, were sick or late for work, left floors above the impact area shortly before, and we'll probably never know for sure where that 4th plane was headed. I've read more than one opinion that he held those towers up long enough for everyone whos time it wasn't to be able to escape. Just the slightest variable at any number of events that day could have meant a casualty rate many more times than it was.

I believe in God, but I wonder why some things happen the way they do. So that is a good way to try and make sense of some of the bad shit that happens in life.
