Hello,

I did lurk on FR in 2001 (did since '98). I don't remember trying to access FR on 9/11, I probably did, but couldn't get through. So, while I remember the emotions, some details are hazy. But, at the same time, I remember each moment vividly. Strange, huh?

Glad to be here, MOgirl

"at the same time, I remember each moment vividly. Strange, huh?"

No, not strange at all. Moments like that stay with you. I remember vividly Sister John Dorothy (a very young nun) racing in a very unlike nun fashion across the playground when she had heard President Kennedy had been shot. I had just turned 12, but I remember that like yesterday, too.

There are moments in time that stay with you forever.

September 11, 2001, is one of those.

I was a lurker then, and I remember that a FReeper was missing for a bit. They kept pinging him and asking for him to check in. I swear the good FReepers would have formed their own search and rescue team for him if he didn't pop up, which, he did, thankfully.
