I can see a ton of helicopters from my office.

I think sandi is on the upper east side....

I live one block west. I returned home early to change my clothes before heading to the Mets game. From my window, I can see dozens of emergency vehicles.

Wow, reports are that Corey Lidle, a Yankee and a licensed pilot, was killed (either on the ground or, more likely, according to reports, piloting the plane).

Scary - latest has it that Corey Lidle was piloting the plane.

I was in the bank then walking to the post office when I heard the helis overhead (so darn dangerous over the city streets). Inquired of my favorite government worker who told me what happened. Managed a peek at a TV at a nearby shop then headed home. I'm about 1/2 mile north and all was fine up this way. Thanks all for asking about us Big Apple folks.

Hey, Michael, we're neighbors; should get together when you're not traveling somewhere.

Thanks for checking in - my hometown has grown to include Fodorville, and you've been in my thoughts; I guess since 9/11 it's grown to include all of NYC too. Sad about Corey and the other who passed - 16 others injured, 11 of whom are our hero-firefighters. I hope no other lives are lost.
