RE: Analysis from a JHU CS Prof

ITV is showing some pretty good coverage in the UK.  First plane strike,
second plane strike from several angles, I'm not sure there's video coverage
of the Pentagon collision.

I hadn't seen *any* footage at that point - I am in the UK and my normal
working day doesn't include TV sets (and of course streaming video reached
saturation and vanished long before we even knew anything was happening over
here) - and come to think of it, I *still* haven't seen any footage of the
pentagon attack. UK coverage seems limited to the second plane strike,
collapse, talking heads, rinse & repeat.....
