On 9/11/2001 I was living about two miles from the World Trade Center. Two people on our block died in the towers. We could smell the smoke for weeks.
Im so sorry to hear this David. How terrible it must have been to have been so close to the event. I pray this never happens again. Those of us watching it on tv could only try to comprehend the horror of it all.
Our country and the world has changed so much since then. We are so much more aware now. And when I think of how those b________ had actually trained over here in the U.S to fly those planes it makes me sick!! No one had any inckling as to what they were using that flight school for. We have definetley woken up since then and hopefully, those in charge of any kind of training facilities, chemical depts,etc. will alert the proper authorities when they see something's not right.
