Have we forgotten 9-11?

[Rick Barter]

I haven't forgotten nor will I. My wife was in the air that morning. She travels every week for her job (she's a big muckity muck) and since I don't watch much TV or listen to radio I didn't know what was happening until I got into work.

I walked by the TV to grab a cup of coffee and everyone was crowded around. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Then I heard how terrorists were hijacking planes and they didn't know how many airlines were affected.

Let me tell you it was the longest hour of my life trying to get in touch with my wife. Thankfully, she landed with no issues.

I like JRs 'arrange the meeting' idea. Pity we haven't found the no good SOB yet.

Like key keeper, I too was listening to the radio that morning. I was listening to Bob&Tom, and when they announced that hijacked plans were flying into buildings I thought it was another one of their more ignorant jokes...It wasn't until I got to school that I realized there was actually something going on. The school had a television in every other room, and some of the teachers even went home to bring in their own personal tv's so everyone could watch. We had no classes all day, we just all sat in our homerooms and watched the different news channels. And every last kid in the school was watching when the towers collapsed.

As this is a blacksmithing forum, not a political forum, I will take a lack of additional posts to lock down the thread.

IForgeIron is visited by over 50 world wide countries each month. We need to stay on the topic of blacksmithing, even though these are sensative issues.
