Rick Rescorla is credited with saving all but 6 of his 2700 employees during the 9/11 attacks by directing people down the stairs of the South Tower using a bullhorn and encouraging them by singing Cornish songs.
Rick Rescorla, a former British military officer, served as the head of security for Morgan Stanley in the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
The 1993 terrorist attack on the complex deeply impacted him, reinforcing concerns he had already raised about the building's security vulnerabilities before the bombing.
Believing the World Trade Center would face another attack, Rescorla consistently drilled Morgan Stanley employees in emergency evacuations, a practice that ultimately saved their lives on September 11, 2001.
On the morning of the attacks, Rescorla grabbed his megaphone and instructed nearly 3,000 Morgan Stanley workers to follow the evacuation plan he had instilled in them.
As they descended the stairwell, shaken by the second plane's impact, he used his megaphone not only to guide them but also to soothe their nerves, singing Cornish and Welsh songs to keep them calm.
During the evacuation, Rescorla called his wife, telling her, βStop crying. I have to get these people out safely. If something happens to me, know that I've never been happier. You made my life.β
After successfully evacuating most of the employees, someone suggested his job was done, urging him to leave. He responded, "You hear those screams? There are more people up there. I have to help get them out."
He was last seen heading back up the stairwell, around the 10th floor, before the South Tower collapsed. His body was never recovered.
Out of the 2,700 Morgan Stanley employees, only six sadly perished. Rescorla is credited with saving thousands of lives that day.

Lost two of my friends in that attack. They had come on a short term assignment from an Indian outsourcing company, and had landed sometime in July. They were on one of the 80+ levels which got the direct aircraft impact. Nothing was recovered of them. Will remain in my memory till the end.

Sad time, shocking time.
My son was on the phone to a customer in the tower when it suddenly went dead.
They were just a customer (stock broker), but he had developed a business relationship.
He was a bit stunned for several days until he heard they made it out OK.
Not so for many that day.

Not only is Boeing's Starliner capsule in trouble, but the Boeing built Orion capsule for the SLS system had serious issues on its return from the lunar orbit mission. The heat shield didn't oblate smoothly but came apart in chunks. NASA and Boeing still haven't determined if this was a manufacturing flaw or a design flaw.

yeah, you never saw that coming, did you?  Roll with me here for the entertainment, and any lounge comments must involve gutters and insults against British food.
I know a lot of us CP'rs are Brits or Europeans. Ohh, I'm sure I just offended somebody. Scottish want to chime in  I'm in the SE USA (Atlanta). Give me 30 minutes and I'll cook you a meal.
Anyway, I know why you Brit's are so ... Brits. I heard this story about Yorkshire pudding. Gross. Do you know why the French still exist? To teach Brits how to cook, oh crap, this is going to go so sideways. Anyway, the Brits have the best vet ever, but back to gutters.
In England it rains. A lot. The universal prosthetic is an umbrella. In the US, it rains in Seattle, but I don't care. Left coast and all that, they deserve it. What do you guys use for gutters? Do you go up on your roofs to clean them? Do you have gutter covers? Etc. I'm ignorantly curious.
Here, we have companies selling "gutter protection." I can take their quotes, divide it by semiannual cleaning fees and I've been dead for 20 years before I get my money back.
EDIT EDIT EDIT
I did not mean this to go off on a culinary exercise. I am sure somewhere Yorkshire pudding is made proper. I just decided to try it at the restaurant I was at in a "what the hell" moment. I actually expected PUDDING. Live and learn.
This sort of falls under "hey fellas! watch this" moment. The reference was simply a side swipe at you Brits in a friendly way. Now I need to catch up on the remains of the thread where it was really about gutters. You damn programmers - like herding cats
