    Not much to add, other than every time something like this comes out I remember where I was when the towers came down.

    It does give a glimpse into the first responder system at the time--scary.

    I heard some excerpts and the operators telling the people inside the building to stay put and open their windows.....really tragic knowing the outcome that that wasn't the best idea....

    You know that this administration has to be corrupt when I start questioning the timing of the release.

    These were released against the wishes of many victims.

    I can't think of any other purpose to release these tapes publicly other than the administration trying to reinstill fear of big bad terrorists into its citizenry.

    34%, you say -- release them tapes. Maybe we can climb to 37% and get them Mexicanos and Abramoff out of the news for a minute.!

    Oh no doubt about this being a PR inspired move...

    Did you even READ the article??

    The NYT and family members sued for the release of the tapes.

    Blaming the Bush Administration for this is beyond stupid.

    Liberal or not, people should learn to read before commenting on an article.
