:31:00
however, investigators
remain guarded...
:31:02
about the specifics
of this incident.
:31:05
Authorities from National
Transportation and Safety...
:31:09
and the Federal Bureau
of Investigation...
:31:11
have arrived at JFKto begin
the initial investigation.
:31:15
Eyewitnesses at the airport,
as well as on Long Island...
:31:20
report seeing the plane explode.
:31:23
No other aircraft were
visibly near flight 180.
:31:26
At JFK,
air traffic controllers...
:31:28
are corroborating
these eyewitness accounts.
:31:32
After the explosion,
debris apparently rained...
:31:36
into the Atlantic Ocean
for several miles.
:31:39
Investigators are cautious about
verifying these accounts...
:31:44
believing they'll learn more...
:32:11
Thirty-nine days
have passed...
:32:14
since we lost
our thirty-nine loved ones...
:32:17
friends, and teachers.
:32:20
As each day passes...
:32:22
without a determining cause
for the accident...
:32:26
we ask ourselves, "Why?"
:32:30
"Ecclesiastes" tells us...
:32:34
"Man no more knows
his own time...
:32:37
"than fish taken
in the fatal net...
:32:41
"or birds trapped in the snare.
:32:44
"Like these,
the children of men caught...
:32:48
"when the time falls
suddenly upon them."
:32:52
And so,
before we can heal...
:32:56
before we escape the presence
of death and time...
