I watched it one year with my Father, he made a very poignant quote when it showed the Firemen racing up to get to the Towers, that probably not one of them came back out.
I have a personal 9/11/01 story.
That Tuesday morning was the day the orkin guy came to the house for his monthly treatment(Florida has lots of bugs). Anyway, the Orkin guy was from pakistan. I was watching events unfold on the TV. When the second plane hit, the Orkin Guy blurted out:
“WHY DO THEY THINK THEY ARE DOING THIS FOR GOD?”
This was long before there was any speculation as to who was attacking us.
I thought that was VERY interesting.
My eyes did not leave the TV for days. I collected every newspaper clipping, piece of memorabilia, etc from those days and have them bound in several large volumes which have survived my husband’s death, the loss of my house, and a move. I KNEW in my heart that the left would suppress the story and drop it down the Memory Hole, so I saved EVERYTHING. ( I even have the VHS videotape of “The Concert For New York”)
I feel like Winston in 1984, saving the newspaper clippings he was supposed to destroy.
