9/11/2001 10:42:11 AM
as far as i know, its business as usual.
9/11/2001 10:42:51 AM
im honestly a little worried about going. we are located near a major airport.
9/11/2001 10:44:34 AM
the Russians had a nuke pointed at us during the Cold War.
9/11/2001 10:46:21 AM
well the triad (greensboro, highpoint, winston salem) is the holding for most petroleum reserves on the east coast, so its a direct military target.... raleigh i dont know about though
9/11/2001 10:49:41 AM
I remember hearing it had something to do with the RTP and all the universities. The fact that they could take out so many important people so quickly.
9/11/2001 10:50:57 AM
Are we still expected to go out to classes and shit today? I don't feel safe leaving the dorms.
9/11/2001 10:51:43 AM
We have the highest concentration of PhD's in the nation here... but they'd hit the military bases on the coastline first...
9/11/2001 10:53:16 AM
and damn the area Im from houses the fucking Atlantic Fleet..im from the Hampton Roads area
9/11/2001 10:55:24 AM
XNoid - I lived for awhile in Newport News, I hope they don't get attacked also.
9/11/2001 10:56:28 AM
but yeah theyre saying now that "some incident has happened, but it was not a car bomb" - referring to the state bilding
9/11/2001 10:58:08 AM
from Quantico, VA... home of Marine Corps OCS.
9/11/2001 10:58:40 AM
I don't think the military has much to worry about. They don't seem to be interested in the mechanism that will be their own destruction.
9/11/2001 11:00:06 AM
not to worry about the airport.....all the planes there are grounded.....there arent any planes in the air
9/11/2001 11:02:40 AM
I'm not planning on leaving the TV today.. I'm sure profs will be lenient.. this is going to be a major event in american history
9/11/2001 11:06:46 AM
I'm going to go to class, but just because I can't sit here all day. I don't plan on doing any work, but being around people is probably best now.
9/11/2001 11:07:06 AM
Holy mother of Ghandi. This is CRAZY!
9/11/2001 11:08:49 AM
Did they evacuate the RTP? Just wondering if that was a rumor or not.
9/11/2001 11:15:26 AM
I'm going shopping.
9/11/2001 11:26:48 AM
Think about it. You think someone's going to bomb a mall - a place where you can find some of the stupidest people in the world? Probably not. Atleast I'll be safe. Anyone want to come with me?
9/11/2001 11:27:45 AM
LOL begonias...
9/11/2001 11:28:09 AM
9/11/2001 11:31:03 AM
so what does that say about you?
9/11/2001 11:33:31 AM
i ain't goin to class i'll tell ya that much... i do know a few companies in RTP have sent people home, (as most are watching the news anyways). I have alse been hearing the military reserves have been alerted as well as national guard...
9/11/2001 11:33:32 AM
I don't wanna go to class....but I have quizzes and all that, I don't know what to do.
9/11/2001 11:35:35 AM
I am scared
9/11/2001 11:38:26 AM
you should be able to get out of most anything today
9/11/2001 11:39:04 AM
im scared too.. which is weird bc i'm a very undramatic person and very little effects my emotions
9/11/2001 11:40:06 AM
yeah i feel the same way....something in the pit of my stomach...
9/11/2001 11:41:07 AM
Its hard for me to believe this is actually happening.People are probably trapped in debri in NYC dying slowly
9/11/2001 11:42:49 AM
it's kind of ironic that i'm missing my soc351 class today.. which basically just talks about overpopulation.. I think it's going to be less of a problem before this all this is over.. are there any estimates out there for fatalies today?
9/11/2001 11:43:02 AM
an official speaking "unofficially" says in the upper thousands. the buildings were thought to be near capacity which is @ 10,000 each.
9/11/2001 11:44:21 AM
I am working in RTP right now . . . I haven't heard anything about an evacuation
9/11/2001 11:45:08 AM
I thought they were saying that the WTC's held around 50,000 on most days???
9/11/2001 11:45:41 AM
they evacuated the EPA building in RTP. I work there and my coworkers were sent home around 11am
9/11/2001 11:45:52 AM
I just heard there's a vigil in the brickyard starting at 12:00
9/11/2001 11:47:52 AM
yeah, from what I hear both buildings house about 25,000 ppl each day...now, they *may* have had an hour and a half to get out before the buildings fell...how long would it take to evacuate 25,000 people from a building like that?RL
9/11/2001 12:27:02 PM
i just went to class and came straight back to my room. the professor said "i dont feel like talking about geology today, do you?"______
9/11/2001 12:28:56 PM
School is in session as usual today.
9/11/2001 12:29:23 PM
didn't chancellor fox send some kind of fucking email that classes are still in?
9/11/2001 12:38:13 PM
So I go to the mall.... half the stores are closed. But hey, atleast I was safe!
