If you ever feel like you're losing your faith in humanity, read The Day The World Came To Town: 9/11 in Gander, Newfoundland
There's a touching section about the CEO of Hugo Boss (stuck in Gander) refusing to take gourmet food brought to him by a Hugo Boss associate because he felt that doing so would be an insult to the people of Gander who had been so kind to him and his fellow passengers.
It's a great book, you'll laugh, you'll cry... Thanks for posting the name of the book, I lost track of it when I had almost finished it, and did not want to go into the hell known as "the schoolroom" to find it.
I've been looking for that book for a while now. I guess I'll have to order it online.
