it's deeply weird... I work at Commerzbank in Frankfurt, they own the tallest building in Europe, the "Japan Tower" I work on the 13th floor of the small brown building next to it, it's a wierd experience to be on the phone to your mother and look out of the window wondering if any of the planes you can see landing and taking off at the airport are going to be comming your way. We all went down to the trading floor to watch CNN as the internet was swamped, then all the traders were told to go home early... My condolences to the families of those that lost thier lives today, and to those that will lose thiers in the comming days and weeks, both victims and perpetrators. God help the Japanese when/if the markets open tomorrow, because if you think it looks bad now...
