The sight of those people that jumped from the WTC Bldg. will forever be etched into my memory.
Having watched numerous footages,those are the hardest for me also.
The absence of air traffic was eerie
X2...being close to Dulles,Reagan,Bwi, there are always contrails going every which way.
Can't remember a clearer blue(er) skies, haven't seen one since.

One of my friends moved about a year before 9-11 from here to Florida. He walked the beach every morning, and saw the same man and his two boys every morning on the beach or fishing. Even tho they did not know each other's names, they became casual friends just by greeting each other every morning. He always said what a great family man the guy was, devoted to his sons. In early September he noticed the man's wife also joined them each day. All of a sudden, he stopped seeing the man and his family. A few days after 9-11, the picture of the pilot of the second jet that flew into the World Trade Center was published on the front page of the paper in Florida. Yes, it was him.....

Sure they do, but not nearly as much as the banks, weapons industries and other powerful industries. Politicians are just errand boys for the wealthy elite who decide how things are run.

Thanks.
I can't say I much care for your toilet references Steve.

There is a great deal of evidence to suspect Israeli involvement in the events of 9/11.
