On September 11, 2001 our nation was attacked. Like many New Yorkers Steve Golding lost a friend in the World Trace Center attack. He created a flash video that became one of the most watched videos on the internet. I was webmaster for WABC radio host Steve Malzberg at the time and contacted Steve Golding to see if we could run the video from our website. It was the most requested video that we had on the site. It is appropriate that on this anniversary I link to it again so that we can be reminded what this anniversary is all about. Why our friends, neighbors and relatives who serve in our armed forces are sacrificing their lives. It must also serve as a reminder why we must mnake the right choice on November 2, 2004. Too many of my fellow New Yorkers have forgotten or at least they have become complacent, thinking we can negotiate with evil. We cannot. I am linking to the video so that we can remind ourselves of that day and also so that some newbies to this site who have never seen it may have the opportunity to view it. You can view the video by clicking on the link below, a new window will pop up. It is a large file (7 megs) so please be patient.
Steve Golding is also a member of Rolling Thunder and the webmaster of http://www.powforum.org
After the attack and during the recovery a memorial light was put in place. Two powerful spotlights facing the sky where the towers stood. The following shots were taken by me from pier 58 in Brooklyn on April 13, 2002 one day before the lights were switched off. It was also my 50th birthday.

It was a shock for all of us. I was sitting at my computer doing my part in the day trading world. There is nothing that can describe the feelings I am sure we have all been through. :(
Thank you, Nic.
You are very welcome. I love your name! :)
Thanks, Mud!
Thank you for the thread and the ping.
Of course, it's not original....but that song, to me, epitomizes how I feel about 9/11 and the War on Terror.
That's because you have a heart ... and that is a very wonderful thing!
Oh dear, sobbing now.

I remember alot from that Day the obvious yes. But in looking back some of this stands out I live and work in Anaheim fate put me here but thats not important what i remember is how quite the Sky's were no scratches from air traffic in the sky, freeways were light ,People were nice to one another doors were held open, people let others merge onto the freeway ,there was more American flags than laker flags on cars One thing stands out a firefighter here was holding his boot out for money in down town Anaheim the light was green we just waited for our turn to give The light turned red big deal wow 3 years ago its hard to fathom
I hope you remember the name! Have a good evening and a good day tomorrow.
You are very welcome. We will prevail.
I will NEVER, EVER forget the dastardly acts of cowardly Islamofacists on that day, and the wishy-washy, limp-wristed actions of the leftists in our Nation that allowed it to happen in the first place.
Also, I'll never forget the indomitable courage of the 9/11 responders, and people on another hijacked airliner that fought the terrorists to their last breath.
Amen and amen.
How's that beautiful black lab?
I had a picture of her, I think with you (if you are brunette?), but that 'puter went to the big digit in cyber space...lol
It's a good video to save. God Bless all and may truth and justice always prevail.
Thank you!
