    I remember every time I celebrate my son's birthday, as he was born that day, a couple hours before. I also knew a young woman on flight 11. It is an unforgettable day and I still get confused feelings from it...joy for my son and rage for the attack.

    Default 911

    Yea, it's amazing how many people happened to turn on their TVs just in time to see that 2nd plane hit. I never watch TV in the morning; but I just happened to turn it on, moments before...

    As for moving fwd, I will not comment on the current wars. But working in the Nat'l Security field, let me assure you, the things I see are troubling. They want to attack us again and again with everything they have. Cells are here; they are planning, preparing, and financing. I believe the greatest threat after conventional explosives (which kills relatively few) are chemicial and biological attacks that could make 911 look like a warm up.

    I am greatly troubled by those among us who seem to have forgotten and/or minimized the importance of 911.......

    We must remember we do not live in the United STATES of America, we live in the UNITED States of America. No longer can political boundries stop us from doing what is right and just. Whether you are black, or white, liberal or conservative, we must remember those who make the ultimate sacrafise in the name of freedom. Whether you support our current military deployments in Iraq or Afghanistan, whether you support the current President of the United States or not, we all support the people who give what very few people are willing to give.

    Here's to moving forward United,

    I was packing up to go hiking at Mt Rogers that morning when I got a phone call to turn on the TV........damn! My planned leaving time was delayed.

    That night at Mt Rogers was so strange not hearing any aircraft crossing the sky.
