The horror arrived in episodic bursts of chilling disbelief, signified first by trembling floors, sharp eruptions, cracked windows. There was the actual unfathomable realization of a gaping, flaming hole in the first one of the tall towers, and then the same thing all over again in its twin. There was a merciless sight of bodies helplessly tumbling out, some of them in flames. Finally, the mighty towers themselves were reduced to nothing. Dense plumes of smoke raced through the downtown avenues, coursing between the buildings, shaped like tornadoes on their sides." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article describes the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
