If anyone happens to know whether any of the buildings immediately surrounding the WTC have been affected I would really appreciate knowing which ones; my sister is in 140 Broadway. Thank you. Sorry for the non-operational content.

FYI, 2 planes crashed into the world trade center. Sounds like on purpose.
Not to be ghoulish, but the traffic impact is looking to be fairly large on the 'net (and on the PSTN in the NYC area).
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...
