It was just another day as far as everybody was concerned. In retrospect, and after reading this thread, I guess that reaction was kind of weird.
I don't know. It was 4,000 km away. As callous as it sounds, it was like watching a world vision ad. Yes it's brutal and awful and horribly unfortunate, but people die needlessly every day. People die from dictators and terrorists and preventable diseases every day. What was different about this day?

I hate to call you a liar, but uh............yeah. It sounds like you're trying to make a point that it wasn't a big deal to you. But to go so far as to say you actually went to school with hundreds of students on September 11th 2001 and "nobody said anything all day about it
"?
I try to keep my remarks pretty light-hearted on CP, but I have to say, that is absolute bull****.
