Miracle On The Hudson

Most people by now have heard of the Miracle on the Hudson--the plane that made an emergency landing in the Hudson River in New York City today without a single fatality. The plane hit a flock of Canadian geese, or is it that the geese hit the plane? Well, anyway, both engines were blown out, and the pilot had no where to go except in the river. But he did so gracefully and expertly that someone on TV said that it didn't feel much different than going over a few speed bumps. Watching the coverage brought tears to my eyes.
