While a tantalizing thought, the supposed power down at WTC2 on the weekend prior to 9/11 has only one source.....Scott Forbes. Not one other person has come forward to support his claims, and Forbes' story has been brought into question here: <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://911review.com/errors/wtc/forbes.html">911review.com/errors/wtc/forbes.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>The CEO of Fiduciary, Anne Tatlock, along with other business leaders, was attending a conference in Omaha, sponsored by Warren Buffett. How coincidential to have key financial leaders safely out of the way and not at their desks in the WTC. Even Georgie himself dropped in on Omaha later that day.....all roads lead to Omaha.....<br><br>From a practical standpoint, a complete power down of a financial institution (for 36 hours!) is out of the question and flies in the face of SEC and NASD mandated operating procedures and chinese walls. I worked on a trading floor in Midtown Manhattan at the time....Fiduciary was a client. My company had a backup power system in place so that, should the building lose power, our phones, computers and access systems would remain in operation. Forbes' story does not add up.<br><br>Not much notice is given to the fact that the mayoral primaries were being held on 9/11/01. Of course, they were postponed to a later date, and Rudy Giuliani, who had reached his term limits and would have stepped down on a not-too-positive note, became the hero and was later discussed as a candidate...the hell with term limits! I always wondered if this was a case of sending out feelers to see if such a precedent had potential on say...the presidential level.....? If Rudy had been allowed to run, and won, it would only seem natural that Bush could too. <p></p><i></i>
