911



I was not going to make this a 911 post but then I was watching the tube this evening with my wife and we stumbled onto the History channel which was showing a special on the 9-11 attack on the World Trade Center twin towers. The video was from many individuals personal cam-corders. The editing made this presentation not only in an accurate timeline but presented it in a very personal slant.

This image is an open source image from the DOD so feel free to download it. The lights are currently shining at leas until sunrise on the 12th. A few years ago when the lights were first turned on I was flying in the New York area and it was quite spectacular. I still get an erie feeling when I fly into the New York area and see the missing twin towers.

Evelyn and I were privileged to spend a couple of nights in the Millennium Hilton this past March and saw first hand the devastation that still remains even in the rebuilding of that area of lower Manhattan. You can read my post from March right here.

Take care... Doug
