I am truly shuddering about thinking about my next ride on Metro North; I ride Metro North so frequently, and am reciting Hallel that so far I have not been on their doomed train, as happened to 5.54AM train this morning.
Not so long ago I was shuddering that I had just been at “Windows on the World” just a few hours before 9/11, and was spared not being there on morning of 9/11.
I don’t blame you for shuddering but I hope you are also thanking Hashem profusely and thinking about why you were zoche to be spared! (not to imply you shouldn’t have been ch”v)
To further booster your comments Syag Lchochma, I most Sundays take this 5.54 train getting off at Marble Hill, and then head to YU for Shacharis & Kollel Yom Rishon, but the C/O Chanukah these Shiurim were in recess today, so the Ness of Chanukah caused me not to be on this 5.54 train which I take almost every Sunday morning.
