Flight 93

I've been thinking about Amberly's book "Let's Roll" today since the transcript of the cockpit voice recorder from flight 93 has been made public. Have you read that? If not here is a link: Transcript

The one in the Dallas Morning News this morning was the easiest I've seen to read because they put the terrorists' words in bold, and the rest in regular print, otherwise I find it slightly confusing. It is eerie to me that the last moments of these people's lives are forever recorded on tape. It does appear that the passengers were trying to break into the cockpit, which caused the hi-jackers to down the plane when they did instead of into their intended target.

I am even more interested now in Lisa Beamer's book. Amberly have you finished it yet?

I'm working on it. I've got about 100 pages more to go. My goal is to finish it before the next 2 book club books arrive in the mail. Hopefully, I can do that this weekend. I sure wish I read as fast as you do, Becky!

Is anyone planning to see the movie coming out about Flight 93? I am not sure I want to see it. I saw the made for TV movie about it. If anyone sees it, I would like to hear about to make a good decision about whether or not to see it.
