Steel.

When the planes hit WTC 1&2 people said it felt more like a gust of wind.

I imagine an Earthquake would be roughly the same. Absorbed like a soft pillow.

I blame Global Warming. Which is totally real.

I do hope the eastern seaboard doesn't get too trashed, though.

Of course you realize that all those beautiful stores will be left unguarded.

Even the police won't want to be outside.

I'm probably going to be out Saturday or Sunday night. My friend's DJing. And with the only (that I know of, and I've been here since Koch was mayor) system-wide closure of the MTA 12 hours before the storm, I can tell you I won't be making it home. Drinking myself silly. Irene come and dance with me.
