After going back and reading the whole thread, I wanted to add something to my post #138.
When the Pentagon was hit, I screamed at the TV asking “Where is the President?”, worried about his safety.
I also wondered why are there still planes flying?
I remember thinking when they make all the planes land, they will hold and question everyone on board and probably catch some bad guys. I was shocked that they let everyone go without questioning.
Did you guys think about that at the time? Or was I just being crazy?

I remember I was listening to a radio talk show in my office. They reported that Katie Couric just reported an accident when the first plane hit. We had a TV at work and tuned in to the news. That is when we all realized this was a terrorist attack.
Our military camp was immediately placed at high alert. When the Pentagon was hit, we were all getting very nervous. Any military post or camp could be an easy target, as none had much security.
I also wondered why not every aircraft in the sky was ordered to the nearest airport and every person aboard questioned. There were supposedly more attacks planned for other parts of the country. Every scheduled passenger should have been questioned, especially every mideastern muSLIME PO$.
