    FIRST RULE: IF you want to say or discuss the .gov was involved Start your own thread (foxtrot edit: Actually, they better go to a new website). This is about remembering. Something no longer mentioned in most schools. Or it's a minor footnote within the education system.

    Here we will remember as we (my family) always do



    approx 7:30 MDT i heard the first reports.

    History channel has some great shows on 9/11 today. DVR them and watch them, a lot of emotions.

    I recorded and watched "15 Septembers Later" last night. Powerful.

    My older son (a high school senior then) and I watched the second plane hit as we were getting ready to leave the house. It was the main reason he enlisted. My phone started going nuts immediately. I got a short text at almost the same time from a good friend on NYPD-"We're at war".

    We will remember.

    Always a melancholy day for me.

    While I didn't know anybody directly affected at the time, I watched the events on TV and was in shock over the tragedy that befell our nation and all the lives affected.

    Not since Kennedy was shot do people remember exactly where they were when this happened.

    I highly recommend a trip to the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. It's one of the few reasons to travel in enemy territory.

    Plan a whole day because you won't be right until dinner.

    The National Geographic Channel also has some excellent segments airing today. Meanwhile, Vice (formerly H2) has "Gaycation" and "Weediquette".

    Not only do I remember where I was, I remember the feelings. I will never understand how anyone that was old enough to understand what was going on at the time could ever forget.
