In a day and age when attention spans are as short as a moth's, forgetting something as horrific and violent is far too easy for too many people. When you're flying and have to go through the gauntlet of security, whenever you see a "9/11 - Never Forget" sticker on a car, and when you're hearing about new measures to prevent terrorism, remember 9/11 and remember these images.

i also used to work at the world trade center when i was a stock broker for morgan stanley (the biggest tenant of the WTC, we had about 40 floors). it was unreal to see the towers go down when they did. i try to remember 9-11 whenever i can, just not only on 9-11.

terrorism needs to be squashed. you cant erradicate it, thats for sure...but you can always remember and never let them win a fight, ever again.

i hope nyc rebuilds towers taller and stronger than the wtc. america is proud and strong.

great flash presentation btw. i liked it.

I still remember the depressing moment when I watched the towers go down from my window at work. Can never forget. My buddy was in the building next to wtc and he ran for miles to escape. What is more disappointing is that laden is still out there.

Jesus... couldn't watch the complete slide show...

Father, Mychael Judge (The NYFD parishoner), the first comfirmed fatality -- the wonderful, humble, simple human being who fed the homeless in manhattan and served the poor and God all his life -- was my wife's childhood priest in northern jersey. (He died when one of the jumpers landed on him as he was trying to give last rights to another victim. The fire-fighters picked him up and took him out, which is why he was the first *confirmed* fatality.)

A few months after 9/11, my wife and I went up to visit some family. We went to the site (I HATE it when they call it "Groud Zero") and to the firehouse and small chapel he had across the street from it from where he served. My wife, understandibly, sobbed. How incredibly sad that such a sweet, loving, wonderful man (along with so many others) was killed in such a senseless, hateful manner.

Juan

My thoughts and prayers go out to all the innocent victims of 9/11! It makes me sick to my stomach to think that this is everyday life in some parts of the world!

I actually had tears in my eye when I watched that emotional prayer service/memorial on Sunday. What a bunch of coward bastards (who probably hid behind women's skirts all their lives) who blew up our towers.

Did u guys watch the show last night on "Discovery HD" about the flight 93? it was owesome.. it gives all the details on the people who fought back..

This people were REAL SUPER HEROES !!! not like the ones we are used to see on TV...

Put it this way this attacks changed the world.. I think this stage where we are now its a different life or something.. ITS NOT THE SAME anymore.
