What a day. It was busy at work right up until whatever happened at the airport. The rate visitors were coming in started declining, and at first we didn't notice, but when Steve came back from lunch he brought us the news. I'm still not clear exactly what happened, though it seems investigators are still trying to figure out what happened themselves. All I know is that security video that every news station has on repeat, some paramedic rescuing Arlene Dryver by tackling her out of the way of a falling support beam.

There were a lot of wild accusations at work, including claims of an earthquake and terrorists. After getting home though, Dad said one of the planes crashed into the concourse. But so far there's been no explanation of how that happened. No pilots, no tow truck driver (whatever those vehicles are called), not even someone who failed to chock the tires.

So far it seems to be just some senseless accident. Arlene's rescuer is getting a lot of attention though, and I'm sure a lot of it is that noone's stepping forward to identify him.

Just such a sad day, and as much attention is being given to Arlene's rescue, I'm not hearing how many were injured or if anyone died. I sure hope not, but given what we've seen someone had to have been hurt.

The worst part is that this is only a few months since the plane crash. DIA is not having a good time right not.
