To all those furs that may be wondering about the "railroading lion" and
the aftermath of 9/11/01, I'm fine.

JRedWolf (aka JFox), Looksfar, who are now rooming with me, and myself
were well away from both NYC and Washington D. C., in transit to the
railroad for a special chartered train for that day, when the attacks
took place. When we arrived at the station to pick up our passengers, we
found out the horrible news and were shocked and saddened.

We are also saddened with the confirmed loss of two furs/weres and the
possible loss of at least two others.

I checked in with some of the furs who I knew that had dealings in NYC
and the Pentagon to make sure they were safe and sound and to let them
know we were ok.

The reason for the long delay for checking in is because I still have a
lot to do at the railroad and this is the first time I had time to type
up a message.

To all, "Be Well".

I'm just glad you're alright LK. This has been a terrible tragedy so
it's great to hear some good news.

Good to hear you're fine but busy. The events of last Tuesday may just be a
plus to railroads. I've been hearing a lot of folk on the news mention
train vs. flying. Maybe the railroads can get some of the cash that's
flowing to put in more high speed lines.

Last I knew we had all accounted for. Who missing?

Would be a good thing from a security perspective as well. After all, the
overburdening of the air traffic system is probably to blame at least in
part.

The furry site http://qrm.exodus.net/fur-status.html reports from NYC's
WTC...

DesertCat, aka Walter Senge, Deceased
Lisa Gregg, Deceased (furry name not listed)

and

FireFoxx - Missing, not heard from.

After checking about... there were no furs reported of who are in the
Pentagon in DC... as I think I am the only fur who visits them on a regular
basis for meetings. Bearhug was in the Pentagon City Mall, which is close
by, and PandaGuy was working in DC, but no one in DC is missing or
unaccounted for.

Still... as I was reminded, it doesn't matter if they were furs or not... a
lot of souls were terrorized last tuesday... let's not loose sight of that.
Ever.

Grace and Peace,
Camstone Fox

Sorry, I somehow missed that.
Not surprising that we would loose someone. I just thought we were one of
the lucky few. *sigh*

You can count on it. They will be remembered and honored.
While I'm looking for justice and not revenge I've got to say I'm very much
looking for the word to come down that we can begin taking action against
those responsible.
