    Re: 911!

    I work downtown Louisville...........in the 22nd floor of the National Tower building. Talk about WIERD.

    After the second plane, it was 30-40 minutes until ATC declared a national emergency and grounded aircraft. I had a FULL length window back then, and could see every aircraft that was in the path of the building........

    After a few minutes......I left and went home.........

    Later,

    Geo

    That would be scary Geo, every plane coming from the north lines up on National City Tower. I worked security there for a few years and had to go on the roof twice a night to make sure the beacon was working and when those things are coming right at you it would scare me to death.

    Prayers to all who have lost loved ones over this ordeal and to all who are serving right now.

    There are only 2 people that will give their lives freely for you, one is Jesus, and the other is a soldeir. On this day we need to thank them both for this great country, and the freedoms we have. God bless them.

    Agree 100%, but lets not forget our fireman! 343 died in the towers that day.

    Remember those who gave their lives -- victims as well as heroes. Also remember how our country united and banded together in those tough times. Compassion and charity was truly shown during those times.

    Amen and thank you for remembering. I am the sister of a solider who laid down his life in Iraq. My emotions are still raw and my tears haven't dried.
