GROUND ZERO SEARCH & RECOVERY

I remain sad. I am angry. You can take Bin Laden and his group of hateful, despicable, hell-bound and residents of hell and . . well, there is nothing we could do to them than would equal what they did to us on 9/11. I am glad that every single solitary man or woman who serves the Muslim cause is going to hell. Yes I'm glad.

I watched Ground Zero Search & Recovery this morning. I didn't have time last night. We watched Zero Hour and afterward I fell asleep. Zero Hour was a more detailed show about Flight 11 which hit the North Tower setting off a day of infamy in America.

Ground Zero Search & Recovery

It was the saddest, most moving story yet about that day. It was through the eyes of rescuers then finders of bits and pieces, about men looking for their sons, brothers looking for their brothers, wives waiting for their husbands, Mothers waiting for their sons, and husbands waiting for their wives to be found and come home.

This show was in fact a CSI on the largest scale to date.

Here is the description to the show:

HISTORY CHANNEL

The inspirational story of the men and women who searched for nine months amongst a vast debris field of two million tons of steel and concrete to find the innocent victims of 9/11, and of the scientists who worked for three more years to identify them. Now, using never before seen footage taken by the searchers as they worked on and under Ground Zero--and as the medical examiners dealt with the remains they discovered--we learn what they all endured in order to bring comfort to grieving families. How they searched through the vast shifting piles of toxic rubble; how they dealt with the trauma of finding and retrieving the victims' bodies and how those remains were finally identified.

It took some brave souls, who were there to find anyone they could, 45 minutes in areas to climb down and look around. For people who couldn't understand why it took so long to find people either alive or dead and intact . . a description was given of what happened when the towers collapsed . . each in about 15 seconds.

They were either vapourized in the fire . . .

Or, picture a giant blender. Throw in concrete, glass, metal and humans and turn it on. Not a nice way to put it, but that is what happened. I didn't make up the description. A man told him, in sadness, as he was there and looking as well.

After Day 1, nobody was found alive.
