I found this while poking around the tributes on the 2,996 website, and just had to share this tale of a hero proved with you. Don't ask me if it's for sure a true story, it's late and you'll have to do your own research, kids. :-)

FYI: I changed the title on this article, but I didn't really have a choice, since the author titled it "September 11th, 2001."

Thank You very much. It was coffee in one hand, remote on the other- I have dropped the coffee and remote and picked up the kleenex.
