[quote:Anonymous Coward 1540163:MV8xMTQ0NTMyXzI2OTAyOTgwXzFBOTE0OEM3] His name is Jon Ostrau - he survived the attacks. Kevin Cosgrove and Doug Cherry were in his office, Mr. Cosgrove just spelled his name incorrectly in his desperate, frantic call to 911. My husband lives with survivors guilt every day - and his story of survival, a truly unbelievable story, is too long to print here. I've read countless posts over the years questioning who this man is. He is my husband, and father of our 3 children. It completely broke his heart and destroyed a big part of his soul when he learned about the fate of Kevin and Doug, and the 3rd man whose identity was never discovered, and that their lives ended in the office that he loved to work in everyday.

Original Message
On the famous "Kevin Cosgrove" tape, we hear three men calling for help from the 105th floor of the WTC second tower.
We learn that another of the men is named Doug Cherry, and that they're in the office of John Ostaru.
But who IS John Ostaru? I can find no evidence of his existence. He isn't named on any of the official lists of 9/11 missing and dead. Since the 105th floor of the second tower was entirely the offices of the Aon Corporation, this would logically mean Ostaru worked for Aon, but I can also find NOTHING to show this.
Googling his name mainly brings up bloggers rehashing the details of the phone call, and 9-11 researchers also wondering why there's no evidence that there ever was a John Ostaru, much less one who had an office in the WTC.
WTF?
