I have no problem with this thread. I don't want to see remains, God knows, but the debris is significant. I am actually most caught up by the very American pictures. These are normal folks, farmers, families, all taking time out of their day to watch over and ponder these pieces of debris on their roads. Various members of a community sem to be gathering around the roped off areas and talking.In a way its very moving....

Well said. I think you are right. The photos with the people are the best.
Nor do I wish to see remains either, that is for the family if they choose only. When my brother was killed in a US Navy helicopter accident I choose not to see the photos of the remains, but I was deeply interested in the wreckage, the causes and gaining an understanding. I wanted to remember him
in life.

They understand that it's not merely a piece of history, it's an important piece of the future as well.
