Wow - I can't believe it's been that long. I was a student at the U of C, and when I arrived that morning, they had wheeled out dozens of TVs, especially in Mac Hall. The place was full of students, glued to the TVs, in stunned silence. It was surreal. One of my profs said it was pointless to have a class, because we were all going off to war the next day.

RIP to all who lost their lives.

And I don't want to quote the image that Dion posted, but watching people jump from those buildings was one of the most horrifying things I've ever seen.
