More remains discovered near WTC site


NEW YORK (AP) -- Construction workers cleaning toxic waste from a vacant
skyscraper near the World Trade Center site have found more bone fragments
and human remains, officials said Tuesday.

The city medical examiner's office plans to extract DNA from the latest
remains to be recovered from the former Deutsche Bank building and try to
match it against a database of the 2,749 people killed at the trade center
on September 11, 2001, said Ellen Borakove, spokeswoman for the city medical
examiner's office.

Fire Department crews had inspected the building in the months following the
attacks, but construction workers clearing gravel off the rooftop found 10
bone fragments there last fall.

The new remains were found in recent weeks by crews doing a more thorough
cleaning before construction workers begin dismantling the building in May,
said John Gallagher, spokesman for the Lower Manhattan Development Corp.

Some victims' family members said forensic experts should search the
41-story building again.

"I'm not trying to malign the construction workers, but this is not what
they're trained to do," said Diane Horning, whose son was killed at the
trade center and has filed suit to remove trade center debris from a
landfill where victims' remains were found.

More than 40 percent of the victims at the trade center have not been
identified. The medical examiner's office is storing more than 9,000
unidentified remains and hope that more sophisticated DNA technology can
allow for identifications in the future.

Borakove said that two human remains were found January 27 on the 38th floor
of the building. She could not say what the remains were or how big they
were. Last Friday, workers found two bone fragments on the roof, she said.

"They are definitely human," Borakove said.

The Deutsche Bank building has been vacant since the terrorist attacks, when
part of the south tower tore a gash in the building. Deconstruction of the
building, which is contaminated with asbestos, lead and trade center dust,
began in September.

The principle of "Fair Use" was established as law by Section 107 of The
Copyright Act of 1976. "Fair Use" legally eliminates the need to obtain
permission or pay royalties for the use of previously copyrighted materials
if the purposes of display include "criticism, comment, news reporting,
teaching, scholarship, and research." Section 107 establishes four criteria
for determining whether the use of a work in any particular case qualifies
as a "fair use". A work used does not necessarily have to satisfy all four
criteria to qualify as an instance of "fair use". Rather, "fair use" is
determined by the overall extent to which the cited work does or does not
substantially satisfy the criteria in their totality. If you wish to use
copyrighted material for purposes of your own that go beyond 'fair use,' you
