Recipe

Two large planes, two extra-large buildings,
Six to twelve  hijackers, knives. Give hijackers
knives and add to planes. Stir violently. Mix planes

with buildings. Heat to 1000 degrees
for at least an hour or until buildings start
to collapse. Video cameras

can be used to record results. Watch
repeatedly while debris cools. Begin search
for survivors. Serve with hot tears. Wait.
