Miracles happen.

• iReporter: "It looked liked a perfectly smooth landing."
• AP: Survivors offer praise, gratitude after NY crash
• The Times: US Airways Plane Crashes in Hudson River
• 1549 to Tower: "We're Gonna End Up in the Hudson" -- includes video clip.
• Major hero: Pilot Chesley B. Sullenberg III (miracle, yes, but Sullenberg is also a glider pilot and extraordinarily smart -- we are all very blessed to have had him in charge)
