If you divide phi by one you get 0.6180339887 - that is phi minus
1. Leonardo Fibonacci (1170-1240) developed his famous series in the
12th century. Each number in the series is the sum of the previous
two: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55. Dividing any number in the
series by the preceding one yield almost-phi (the results of the
division are phi-asymptotic).

Plane Crashes
September 11, 2001 was not the first time an airplane crashed into a
skyscraper. Actually, such tragedies are more common than is thought.
On July 28, 1945, for instance, a U.S. Army B-25 bomber traveling at
200 miles (c. 370 kilometers) per hour in heavy fog crashed into the
Empire State Building in New York City. Luckily it was a Saturday,
though dozens were injured and 14 killed. People thought the city was
being bombed:
Doris Pope, Boynton Beach, Fla. told The Palm Beach Post in 1999:
"We heard this terrible noise, and the building started to shake.
