The left wing of the twin-engine jet initially touched the ground, causing the plane to lose both of its engines. The plane then skidded off the runway at the Guadalupe Victoria International Airport until it stopped about 300 meters away, Aispuro said.
Anabel Estrada -- a passenger from Joliet, Illinois -- felt like the aircraft had been battling against the heavy rain and wind before it hit the ground twice during the crash
"The second impact was a lot stronger. This is when I jumped and hit my head against the ceiling," Estrada said. "After the second impact, I saw flames in the cabin ahead of me."

I was thinking about the USA and population growth. A question about that..
Not a trick question, but do you know the answer?..(after some thought, I figured it out..but the
answer is easy.)
Here is the question....Since 1940, most of the strongest population growth in the USA has occurred in 3 states:
California, Texas, and Florida.. Why? or...Why not New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Illinois like it used to be? ...(.I guess it is more than one question, but it is about one idea,)
...
...Is there any one cause for the change? If there is one, what is it? ..It ain't a trick question, but I think there is one reason...(in my opinion...what is your opinion?)....and it is not..no, NOT... people having sex and having babies....that is NOT THE CORRECT ANSWER..
I am a bit out of it tonite, why not a quiz, like I used to give when I was a teacher in a high school?
