Horrid
July 07, 2005
The internet is brewing. I had no idea it happened until Roger told me when I
got out of the shower this morning. The images made my stomach turn. Railcars
twisted, double-decker buses torn open.
The entire underground network shut down. People trapped, people injured, people
dying. Like animals in a cage.
It is unjust. Barbaric. Revolting. I am so thankful for a President who is
willing to fight this battle.
Below are quotes from those suffering today in London:
I was on the train that the "Bang" happened on. I must have been 2 -3
carriages down from where it originated. I would like to praise the people in
my carriage and on the train as a whole for remaining calm despite the sense
of fear everyone must have felt whne this happened. After waiting for maybe 15
minutes or more we were rescued by emergency services and had to walk the
remainder of the way down the track to Aldgate station. There was twisted
metal from the train laying on the track which we had to pass as well as
injured people who needed urgent medical attention. The emergency services
were doing an excellent job taking care of people and their response in
general was superb. Bravo to them.

I was getting off the west bound central line at Liverpool street station at
about 8.50. Halfway up the escalator, I felt the stairs shake a little and
then there was a cloud of smoke that shot up from underneath the stairs. The
alarm went off and people went crazy and just run out of the station.

There are many fire engines and ambulances rushing past the window of my
building. There are a lot of people phoning loved ones to make sure they are
ok. Feels a bit like September 11th all over again here.
