George Andrew LLanes
September 13th 1967 - September 11th 2001


On September 10th 2001 George knew the chances he took going to work at the World Trade Center. On September 11th 2001, George went to work anyway. George was just one of our Marines on that day, the civilians who manned the front lines and went into a building targeted for death. They went in and made this city, this country, this world revolve. For some reason they are called victims, when they should be called Heros! Below is an article about some of the heros that were trapped in the World Trade Center that day. George Andrew LLanes was one of those who worked in Carr Futures.
My Friend - My Step Son.
Was an employee of Carr Futures.


Those of you who know me, know I had a vent page up on the net from Sept, 2001 to December 2001. Finding this article has brought to my attention that, not only did my family and I lose George on September 11th. We now know that chances are he suffered from 8:46 am till 10:26 am. Most were offered a quick and horrendous death. Those in Carr Futures were not so lucky.

8:46, north tower, 91st floor, American Bureau of Shipping, 1 hour, 42 minutes to collapse


The impact came at 8:46:26 a.m. American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767 measuring 156 feet from wingtip to wingtip and carrying 10,000 gallons of fuel, was moving at 470 mph, federal investigators estimated. At that speed, it covered the final two blocks to the north tower in 1.2 seconds.

The plane ripped a path across floors 94 to 98, directly into the office of Marsh & McLennan, shredding steel columns, wallboard, filing cabinets and computer-laden desks. Its fuel ignited and incinerated everything in its way. The plane's landing gear hurtled through the south side of the building, winding up on Rector Street, five blocks away.

Three floors below the impact zone, not a thing budged in Steve McIntyre's office. He found himself in front of a computer that was still on.

Then came the whiplash...
