    reg. the sinking of plane in hudson river..here is a trivia - it occurred on the day bush was supposed to give his farewell speech and a day before mushraff's stanford speech. incidentally both being the main characters in an eventful decade surrounding 9/11; continuing on a long list of coincidencal events wrt Pak/US affairs if you catalogue the timeline of 9/11 tragedy.
    More here from the same author
