On the morning of April 19, 1995 I was in Houston, TX trying to set up a wide area network between two medical facilities that were in Houston and Oklahoma City. I wasn’t having much success and I couldn’t figure out why. Eventually, someone asked me if I was from Oklahoma city and I said that I was. They told me something was happening on the TV that I should see. It was on that morning that Timothy McVeigh parked a rental truck with explosives in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building and at 9:02am, a massive explosion occurred which sheared the entire north side of the building, killing 168 people. I wasn’t even able to get a phone call into my wife. I caught the next plane home. Today, one of the best museums in OKC is the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum. It’s worth a trip. 20120425
