When the planes crashed why did no one look for the black box?

Well they probably did, but it was kinda obvious what caused the accident I think. Usually they use this to discover what happened if an aircraft goes down, but some one kinda admitted to doing this terrible act.

Some of the black boxes were located and analyzed. Those that weren't recovered were destroyed during the acts themselves.

Not much would be safe at those heats as we sadly saw that morning.

Oddly enough some of those boxes that were engineered to be tough did not survive that terrible act, yet (so I've heard) firefighters found a napkin box with a mother cat and 3 kittens alive in it in the rubble.

Quick question...
If a black box is so indestructible, why isn't the plane made out of it???

Old George Carlin bit, but the answer is weight/cost.
