I was in my car, heading to an early morning class. When the radio DJ announced that a plane had hit, I thought that it was just a private plane. It wasn't until I got to school and saw the tvs in the lounge area that something catestrophic was going on. I went to class and annouced it to everyone...no one believed me, not even my professor. He had done some governement work, and was paranoid that people were after him, and he thought that this was the case, as well. He ran from class and, 20 minutes later, came back to confirm. He canceled class and told us to all go home to be with family and friends.
Being on the east coast, I know of many families affected by this tragedy. My neighbor's son left his job the day before at one of the companies located on the upper floors of the 1st tower that was hit...no one he knew survived.
Solemn day of remembrance.
Thank you, OP, for starting this thread.
