(Back to Tokyo...; click to enlarge; photos taken by EEE Reporter)Seven Buildings in WTC or Seven Terror Acts
The above bottommost is a picture of the skyscraper zone at west Shinjuku in Tokyo.
The tall, whitish building on the left hand side looks triangle in an overhead view.
In the middle of 1970's, before this building was completed and made commercially open, I happened to visit it to observe how a new type of tall buildings was constructed in Tokyo.
At the time there were not many skyscrapers around it; even the new and tall Tokyo Prefecture Office Building was not under construction.
However, I found its office space not heavily equipped and furnished, so that everything looked light and simple at a floor near 200 meter-high or so.
I think I also saw a U.S. movie around that time which featured the WTC Towers in New York under construction.
Anyway, all the seven buildings in the World Trade Center of New York have gone while the whitish triangle building remains in Tokyo since September 2001...
Indeed, I might have died, being involved in any plane accident like the one around Tokyo in 1985 (killing 520 people) or east/west of African coast lines in 2009 (with an airbus each), or otherwise in terror attacks like the one in Tokyo in 1995 (with a sarin gas), in New York in 2001, or in London in 2005...
For you reference:
AlQaeda-related terror acts
(i) 1993 - World Trade Center bombing
(ii) 1996 - Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia
(iii) 1998 - U.S. Embassy bombings in east Africa
(iv) 2000 - Suicide boat bombing to USS Cole in Yemen
(v) 2001 - September 11 attacks
(vi) 2004 – March 11 Madrid train bombings
(vii) 2005 - 7 July London bombings
I hope that there will be no more acts of terror, since the Great Financial Crisis started on Wall Street on September 15, 2008.
(Cet été, mai-être un peu froid pour voir une politique de non-fiction, ma chère princesse. It is so since the global warming has probably already reached its peak...

Rev 8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
Rev 8:2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
Rev 8:3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
Rev 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
