I'm almost sure this has to do with control towers...

Yeah, flying planes into control towers so that all the other planes crash because there are no more control towers! Those mathematics textbook writers weren't kidding around.

What's the publication date of that book?

I assume that's talking about control towers or signal towers.

Airports (where planes live when they're not floating around) have control towers.

So it was the math book writers... Now it makes sense.

Usually airports only have 1 control tower if I'm not mistaken, also when was this book written.

in a weird, fucked up way I find it comforting that we're able to make obviously offensive jokes about 9/11. Humor is a strange strange comforter and its hard to explain why so much humor has to do with bringing up the worst situations about our lives. I dunno, I think I'm crazy sometimes, but I feel like if you can make light of the worst situation than you've conquered the evil or misfortunate in it. thoughts?

Crosspost this to /r/wtf before someone else takes all your karma.
