That's going to be a life changer for many people for a long time! Sad, very sad. Not sure how many lives were affected yet? The time it collapsed was a life saver for many people! Imagine it happening during the day when that bridge is full of traffic!

Prayers to the poor souls who when into the water. This is going to be a long time getting cleaned up.

Here's a sad side-note ... The Francis Scott Key bridge collapsed.

Nineteen of the twenty people I talked with today (old and young) had no idea who Francis Scott Key was. One guy asked "Was he a Confederate general?"

wow

And they probably think that Vladimir Lenin was a relative of John Lennon.
