I was working at a pub in Halifax that morning - we were going through the daily morning prep and one of the delivery drivers told us about it (by this point both towers had been hit and the Pentagon as well - we turned on the TV just in time to see the first tower fall). Safe to say nobody cared about the consistency of the soup from that point on.
Halifax did itself proud that day - 40 planes landed with 8000 passengers on board, and they were all looked after.
Looking back from 17 years, if destabilizing the US was Bin Laden's goal that day, he definitely succeeded.
