according to wikipedia, 2,996 dead (including the 19 hijackers) and 6,000+ injured. this article I think was within 72 hours or something so the estimates were all over the place

I've got a newspaper somewhere (ha ha because we still got newspapers back then) Can dig it up later if you like, be interesting to have evidence
