First of all, I'm amazed that nobody died when that plane crashed into the Hudson River. Everyone was rescued.
Secondly, I'm amazed at the coverage. I received an iChat instant message telling me about it. I went to CNN.com and watched live TV coverage on my computer.
And now, at Yahoo! News, I find a 46-picture slideshow which pulls good photos from a variety of sources (mostly the Associated Press and Reuters). As if this is something that happened yesterday, rather than a couple hours ago.
Amazing is our world.
Career-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
That pilot should be given some major commendation. I heard some commentatro state that this was the first emergency landing by a commerce jet where the plane didn't break apart and no one died. God really was watching over them. It would be interesting to learn how this affects the passengers' beliefs toward deity.
