Another person on that plane's wife was interviewed on KGO radio this morning, he lives in Pleasanton, CA, and apparently he made a total of 4 cellphone calls from the airplane to his wife in California, who told him about the WTC airline crash which had happened a few minutes before. He apparently asked a lot of questions about that and on the 4th phone call said that the passengers were going to "do something" to try and take over the plane. This was shortly before the airplane crashed in western Pennsylvania. Apparently not all Americans went down without a fight yesterday. Whatever they did, they probably saved hundreds or thousands of other people's lives by doing it.

I havent heard anything about this anywhere else, but I know Jerry and I really doubt he'd put this up if he didnt believe it was accurate: http://www.jerrypournelle.com/mail/currentmail.html#eye Joseph C.
