WikiLeaks has a corpus of text messages sent over a 24 hour period on
September 11th 2001.

Some of the WikiLeaks 9/11 corpus are clearly very personal. But there are
also many texts included that are automated system status messages. The
automated responses provide an insight into the sequence of when systems
failed or being unusable during that day.
