I was working in Maine on an IT project when the CEO came in and told me of a small plane hitting the WTC. I thought the damage would be light because of the mild damage that WWII bomber did to the Empire State building in the late 40's. I tuned one of the servers to an internet site and realized what was happening when the 2nd plane hit. Shortly after that the CEO shutdown all 4 offices. He told me we should all be home with our families. By the time I got home both towers had fallen. I grew up in Brooklyn, near the harbor and watched those towers being built. Like the Empire State building I thought they would be around long after I, my kid and my grand kids were gone.
I agree with Avon; Never Forget, Never Forgive.
