[BC] Auxiliary Facility back to Main Facility

[DANA PUOPOLO]

The irony is the way WCBS got an aux on Empire. Seems that their lease was
about to expire on Empire and since they had already moved to WTC, they had
not planned to remove it. The person who was in charge of notifying the
Helmsley Group (Empire landlord) forgot to send the letter. Thus, the lease
automatically renewed. That person got fired for their 'incompetance'.
THEN...the WTC was bombed (the bomb in the North tower basement). All the NY
television stations were off for over a 
day - except for WCBS, who simply switched over to Empire.

The rest - and 9/11/2001 is history.

I wonder if that guy ever got rehired and/or given the million dollar bonus he
deserved....

Let me guess... from WTC back to Empire? How many others are in that same 
situation?
