Survivors recount escape from bridge - Article from Yahoo! I remember last night I was stressing a bit about my car. I was just thinking, sometimes I forget that when things are going bad for me, someone else out there is doing worse.

Yeah, I read about that. I've been saying little prayers for the people still stuck among the wreckage.

the newspapers reported it as nine yesterday, then about mid day they said it was only 4...
its weird to think that just this past Sunday I drove over that bridge with Chrono and another friend, and the only reason I would have hesitated was because of traffic.
My sister's daycare provider's husband was on his motorcycle on the freeway at the time. He said he saw a guy stop right before the bridge his truck blocking a couple lanes and get out to block some more, so he could stop more people, that man is the reason he's still alive.

Yeah, it's weird. We travel down to Minneapolis sometimes, so I'm sure I've been over that bridge before. So yeah...it's very sketchy, and my thoughts are with all those affected.
