ITV is showing some pretty good coverage in the UK. First plane strike, second plane strike from several angles, I'm not sure there's video coverage of the Pentagon collision. -----Original Message----- From: David Howe [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2001 12:33 PM To: Email List: nanog Subject: Re: Analysis from a JHU CS Prof > It takes quite a bit more than you would expect.

I hadn't seen *any* footage at that point - I am in the UK and my normal working day doesn't include TV sets (and of course streaming video reached saturation and vanished long before we even knew anything was happening over here) - and come to think of it, I *still* haven't seen any footage of the pentagon attack. UK coverage seems limited to the second plane strike, collapse, talking heads, rinse & repeat.....
