Twenty years ago, I was at work when I learned a plane hit the World Trade Center. I got home in time to see the second plane hit live. I heard about the Pentagon and Pennsylvania in real time. I watched the towers fall in real time. I watched celebrating crowds in the Middle East cheering at the destruction and loss of life. And when I went to talk to my friends about it at the site where I was an admin, I found my admin status revoked and our primary forum shut down for the day because the other admins didn’t want the Americans talking about this on their website. Through all the bad that day, my fellow Americans pressed on. The courage some showed in jumping or running up the stairs. Those who said “Let’s Roll” and fought for a plane. My fellow Americans impressed me that day. As long as I live, I will Never Forget.
