I intended to do one of these later today when more people were on, but, thanks for doing one yourself.

I'm ashamed to admit that I don't remember as much as I'd like to about that specific day. I actually remember my birthday party the day before far better. Probably because I didn't understand the significance at the time. I remember that I was in the second grade and we were sent home immediately. Then, none of us knew why but, of course, now I do. Now I also know why my parents were reluctant to turn on the TV when I was in the room for the rest of the day, and also why everything seemed so solemn. They tell me now that they weren't sure what seeing something so traumatic would do to me and so they tried to keep me from seeing and fully understanding what was going on until after it happened. Again, now I know and I sincerely hope that all of us on this wiki, regardless of nationality, can come together to at least remember those men, women, and children who died ten years ago. May they rest in peace.
