Listening to NPR...

I've been listening to NPR pretty much non-stop for the past four days. (Hurray for live streams!) and every so often someone says something that just drives the point home regarding the events in NYC. Even with the live coverage on TV and pictures on the web (Yahoo! has excellent slideshows...) I don't think the enormity and the gravity of the situation in NYC has sunk in yet. The pictures don't convey it. But thinking about 110 stories times 2... 450,000 tonnes of debris... one can just wonder. I found one picture which really showed the scale when you think of the size of the rescue workers with respect to the mountain of debris that needs to be scaled.
