Evidently a number of airliners were hijacked and purposely crashed
into the Pentagon, the World Trade Center in New York (which was hit
by at least two planes) and other places.
As an employee of NASA, I was called this morning and told not to
come to work. From my fellow co-workers who were at work earlier this
morning, I have heard that they are searching every car going into
the place where I work, and things are a mess.
All airline travel has been suspended within and into the US. I have
heard that Canada has also shut down air operations (can someone
confirm this?).
Caltrans (people who do road construction in California) have been
ordered
off all the bridges in the San Francisco Bay area. I believe that
the Golden Gate bridge is closed.
