    Hey hi Pete.....yes...truly rotten
    i have never ever have had any objections to CCTVs.
    i looked at the infrastructure this pm...there are a couple of them right by where Rosie was parked...ten feet away, some ten feet up. i just hope that it was a multi-cameras unit and has good resolution. it's awful when the definition isn't good and particularly when people's lives are concerned. as we know from previous news of human victims...

    thanks for your support Pete.

    Not all at, I will read up those. In the
    meantime you might know of those aircraft
    lost due to crates of digital watches in
    the ninties. I think there was at least
    two.

    pete hi....

    it has been bugging me that i knew there was Mexico involved in the flight....
    i had referred to a wrong flight feb 16, earlier.

    this one was jan 31 2000 Alaska Airlines...Flight 261.
    I hadn't realised there was documentary made of this already and aired.

    here's wkik write-up, if you're interested:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261
    (the very last paragraph, illustrates the shameful depths fellow humans can stoop to...)

    and another one frrom Seattle...sobering account
    http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/alas251.shtml

    i hope i'm not intruding...
    regards

    pete..hi
    you know the flight i was talking about involved a McDonnell Douglas plane...aeromexico or some such airline...flying over the Pacific to California...and straight into the water...other flights in the neighbourhood saw it go down helplessly...i read about it in the Tribune (IHT), a few years ago...have googled...can't find it...you know which one it was?

    all i remember that the reportage on it, the article i read was heartbreaking.

    if you could help ID it, appreciate it....
    thanks pete..

    regards

    since you have been on my profile, I thought I'd leave a message, it would be rude not too.
