Yes, indeed Dale. I used to give English lessons in several offices in the first tower: a Japanese securites firm, two Japanese banks and a Chinese bank. This was a decade ago, and many of my former students and their bosses had likely been rotated back to Asia or other places in the world as others with different and similiar vitality and dynamism took their places. Some whom I knew may still have been there. All of these offices were located high up in the tower, and I feel sure all who were there at the time are among the dead. My heart aches for them all, and us all.
