Live from Ground Zero

A friend of mine, Dave, an Aussie working in New York emailed:

I went down on Sunday night. I would describe the scene as the bulk of people there to see what was going on - leading to the situation where the bulk of people there were looking at a bunch of people looking around to see what was going on.

Notwithstanding that, it was a spontaneous outpouring of positive emotion

I would have brought a megaphone and lead the crowd in a tearjerking rendition of this famous American hymn.

Update: Dave advises "that got sung too".
