i was at work when this happened ,we had just put all the patients in the tv room ,the whole thing was happening live on tv ,we just stared at it ,and before anyone knew people were dead already we could see the bodies ,not breathing or moving ,and fans trying to do cpr on corpses ...
terrible way to end a decade ,and not to be forgotten
