Neither deeper meaning nor weird coincidence. It's possible to do this little number trick for just about anything. Look for all things numerical even loosely associated with an incident. Select a particular number (e.g. 11) as significant. Manipulate the numbers in a variety of ways. Keep the hits and ignore the misses. You can easily find a large number of "hits".

Notice it happened in the 2nd week of the 9th month of the year 2001, and the buildings don't really look like an 11 to me (they look like two buildings). "Manhattan" has 9 letters. Also, there were two other flights, of which I assume the number of passengers or the flight numbers couldn't be manipulated to produce 11s.

And what the hell does the area code of Iran and Iraq have to do with anything? (or the "emergency number" for that matter).

Hey, this is a cool site.
<a href="http://www.av1611.org/othpubls/eleven.html" target="_blank">web page</a>
Have also a look at the "Hell" site where they come-up again with that very old hoax-urban legend about the deep core drilling actually making a hole in the ceiling of hell.
Incredible. On would think that this kind of story are short lived, but there it is again.
When it comes to the numbers, there is nothing coincidential about it. By manipulating numbers one can achieve any number of coincidences.
As Arthur Andersen and a few CEO's how to do it!!

Wow! It made me realize that I took my first airplane ride when my sister was 9 and I was 11, and airplanes are what crashed into the WTC!

I wonder if they'd add that to their web site?

Sorry guys. You're right. Got a little (but not alot freaked out) about the stuff. Check out these sites that have interesting coincidences (not to do with the bible):

<a href="http://www.boulderweekly.com/archive/010600/coverstory.html" target="_blank"> Mason stuff</a>

Artificial numerical coincidences are my speciality. With numbers, and the manipulation of number and of-course in hindsight anything you want to demonstrate can be done. The same with the Nostradamus book and the Bible.
All nonsense and make believe.
