Does anyone remember 911? I was working a job doing wireless internet install at a bank in Watseka, Illinois. I was on the roof and there were businesses playing the news on the radio so you could hear it outside. It kind of reminded me of what you see in the movies about WWII. I also remember how bizarre it was to not see any airplanes in the sky. That was surreal, like something out of a movie. We're on the flight path to the airport in Bloomington, Illinois and always have planes flying by. It kind of seems like this nation has forgotten that horrible tragedy.

I remember the day like yesterday. I was in college at the time. Was going from one class to the next. I came downstairs and into the atrium. They had a big TV on a cart in the middle of the atrium and there were people all over the place just standing around watching, some crying. It was sure a sad day...... My nephew's fiance is pregnant and due for their second child on Sept. 11th. Their first was a girl, this one is a boy......

I too remember that day. I was sleeping and my Wife woke me up and said airplanes were crashing. So I turned on the news and saw that second plane crash, live I think. Then finally we saw the tall buildings coming down after a while.

I was sleeping in and the wife came in the room telling me that a plane had hit the trade tower...In the grogginess of being half awake I said we were under attack.....Then about the time I turned onthe TV in the bedroom the second plane hit...Ihad a sick feeling in my stomach as I thought about all of the folks onthe planes and in the buildings.

I remember it. I was in third grade in Mrs. Petree's math class. I remember Mrs. Heart running into the class telling my teacher her husband was in there and she needed to use her cell phone. I was only 8 so I didn't really know what was going on but I could tell it wasn't good.
