I guess OSHA will have to review all the NYC crane inspection and PM records. State and local inspectors have done a poor job of it. If they find that a contractor is paying off inspectors the whole lot of them should go to jail...and any politician who tries to help them should go right along with them.

"something wrong with the crane?"

you mean that the crane was born with this defect??

Na If there was something wrong with the crane it would be a human error.

So what- that you think it's still 9/11? It's not. 9/11 is a DATE, 91st Street and 1st Avenue is an ADDRESS and 911 is the phone number we call in the event of an emergency.
Tell you what? If you ever find yourself with exactly $911 DOLLARS, don't SPEND them- it's too scary!
Send the $911 DOLLARS to me instead!
And uh, just because you ARE paranoid it does NOT mean anyone is out to get you!
You have not figured out that the terrorist picked the day 9/11 for a purpose. It was not just a random day they picked out.

DUH!!! Really? Of COURSE I knew that- what is wrong with you?

What the F does that have to do with a crane falling on 91st street and 1st Avenue? NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!

Really- be sure you NEVER dial 911 in case of emergency- just might connect you to "terrorist central headquarters"!

You are really not very bright at all.

if this happened in Iraq bush would be quick to send them a few billion of our tax $$ to provide US contractors to clean up the mess for $10,000 per person per hour.

How old are you? You guys are arguing about a date and a number... Honestly... 9/11 isn't a cursed number now just because bad things happened on that date. Who even cares what you guys are talking about.... Get a life.
