Thank you for collecting these thread links and putting them here. Nice work. As painful as it is to reread through these threads - it re-convinces me that there is no place like Free Republic anywhere in the world. No equivalent. No equal. What a gift to the world, Jim Robinson.

This is the part that gets me the most. I had just heard someone say over the cube wall that a plane had hit the WTC. I opened up a browser, and the first thread in your list was the one I had clicked on. There were 13 replies to it when I first opened it, and these were the last two:

Thanks for this thread. I read through all of the posts here, and thought about you folks recording history as it happened. I wasn't on Free Republic at the time of all of this happening on 9/11. I was in one of our company's break rooms watching all of it on CNN and MSNBC.
I left for work about 8:10am Central, and by the time I heard what happened, the second tower had already been hit. It's a 12-minute drive to work for me, and I can remember the entire time just wanting to get to work and get in front of the TV. I watched the WTC Tower two collapse live on TV -- that freaked me out! I had to take a break from the news a few minutes later and get back to my cubicle -- the Tower One collapsed shortly afterward.
I would like to see the admins at FR keep these threads online -- perhaps a special page linked from the front page of freerepublic.com. Freepers here recorded history as it happened. I challenge any un-American "peace" protestor to read those threads and say that we should "give peace a chance".
We gave peace a chance. Now it's time to give war a chance.

Thank you for these links even though I get a kick in the gut and the tears flow each time I see them. I was in Alabama with my 80 year old Mom on that day and as not at my computer with my FR family and I was just lost. My Mom was in total deniel and got so upset whenever I started crying therefore I had to put on a good front. I came back to GA that evening and cried all the way home listening to Neil Boortz and the stories. None of us will ever forget where we were that day.

We were hoping basil's "Test post, Please Ignore" thread would be on your list.

Thank you for the links. I read these threads on that Tues morning but had nothing to say. I was stunned and crying. They will be bookmarked, but I don't know if I can ever read them. Very, very sad day.

Incredible how amazingly "right-on" Freepers were right from the first few minutes! I was too stunned to log on ... I was glued to the TV set!
