Maybe the Telegraph needs to publish this every week or so, to remind the loathesome Europhile leftists in England of what it is we are all fighting: the single greatest massacre of British subjects since WWII. All of the IRA bombs put together have not killed this many Englishmen.

Each one so precious to loved ones and friends, and so valuable to the God who made them. I hope He has received them all.

The victims came from approximately eighty nations of the world. The World Trade Center was a world tragedy.

My bloodlines are very British (Scots, Irish, Welsh), and as I read through the list, I wondered if any of these souls were relatives. For all I know they could have been, and I choose to take their deaths as my own personal loss. I pray for their survivors.

So many people in so many countries were affected by that horrific attack......if we didn't lose a loved one or friend ouraelves; we often know someone who did!

Are you still in Hong Kong? Some members of my family just returned from a tour of China & Hong Kong was their last stop.....they said it was a busy exciting place like an Asian NYC!

I haven't seen their pictures yet but I do know that they spent time in Shanghai....they raved about the architecture there. They also visited Beijing, the Great Wall and that area with the steep rocky mountains so popular in Chinese paintings.

BTW what time is it in HK?

Guangxi province....yes I'd forgotten the name. Eager to see those pictures as they said it was unusually sunny when they were there and the area is often misty.

11:30 PM here on the west coast of Florida where I am....we are soldiering on here in USA....Thank God the 'grown-ups' are in charge now and we have President GW Bush!

Americans are supporting this war on terrorism....9-11 was a wake up call for the civilized world....those terrorists will use biological terror, nukes....they just want to kill us....would be interested in what people in HK think about the attack on NYC.

Please Freepmail me with your thoughts as I must go to sleep now! Enjoyed chatting with you.

And what have I said that makes you believe that I do not understand the scope of this terrible crime? I respond to articles as I see fit, without worry about how each and every one on this board feels about my comments.

Yes, redhead. Each one, no matter their religion or ethnicity, was a unique person. There never will be another like any one of them.

I have a friend who saw these steep mountains. She said it was near Guilin (Gwee-lin) which is in one of the most southerly provinces.
