I can't get to any news sites either. BBC, CNN, MSNBC, or the page on Yahoo with the info.
Here's what I've heard on the radio so far. Two airplanes. The 2nd was a large Boeing (American Airlines I think), that was hijacked on it's way from or to Boston. It crashed 18 minutes after the first, so people shooting video after the first one actually captured the 2nd one hitting. The 2nd had a huge explosion I guess. There are thousands of people that work and live in those towers, not to mention that there are probably a couple hundred on the plane. I'm sure most of the people that were alive got out before the second one hit otherwise it could have been worse. This is pretty major, I wonder who's responsible.
Yes, this may be OT, but this is huge and I'll contribute what I know.
