I think the fact that 9-11 was so senseless is what bothers me the most. None of the people have a clue what it is that Osama and his buddies have for a bitch. They were just off to work to try and earn a living for their families.

I am not sure what the point was they were trying to make but I think we understood something quite different. I am sure that we will make them regret their decisions on that day.

Jeff,

I just finished watching the 9/11 program. I literally jumped in my chair after they had explained what the noise was, that was said to be bodies hitting the ground. I had to close my eyes tight, and fight back the rush of emotion that was every bit, maybe even more so, than it was on the actual day of 9/11.
One thing the show pointed out, that I was previously unaware of was the comment about using the stairway. Saying that the average time was 1 floor per minute. Doing some quick math, quickly brings to reality the time frame those firefighters were facing, in the best of circumstances.

That film was incredible if not overwhelming.

Hug your family!
Jane

What's hard to believe is its reality.
