A Survivor Speaks
"I have heard the Celtic expression 'the thin places'
related to those points in life
where there is a very thin veil between our world and G-d,
and I think everyone on that plane was at a very thin place that day."
That is part of an email I recieved from Steve O'Brien, a survivor of Flight 1549. I wrote about that miracle here, and mentioned a CBS radio interview with Mr. Obrien. I hope to soon post more of what Mr. O'Brien has written.

Just how "thin" a place was sadly underscored by the more recent tragedy up in Buffalo. Which also served to show what a real miracle it was that the passengers of Flight 1549 survived. Is Mr. O'Brien a friend? He was quoted in a very interesting piece about what the survivors have been experiencing: http://www.charlotteobserver.com/597/story/494703.html
Wow. How did you get in touch with him?
