Was in New York a couple of weeks ago and went along to ground zero. I didn't really fill anything considering what had happened there. It didn't feel like a memorial, where as, when I went to the Dakota Building, even without any plaque or sign, felt quite sad at such a waste of life.
I think that says more about me then the locations, actually felt guilty for having both those different feelings.
Must be me!

Looking at the skulduggery and chicanery that is being revealed in wikileaks may I suggest that it was definitely an inside job.
End of thread.

Ever so gently, like a wounded dog, the thread edges towards a replay of earlier threads.

You know, the two widely reported interceptors that were latterly denied, oh and the phone calls from an altitude at which it was impossible
All that aside, a day of a truly momentous event that was documented from the start on here and that I intended to print off as a record of the shock and panic for my kids to read in later life
Being the pillock I am I never got to do it and would dearly like a copy

Thanks for setting my mind at ease, Crassus.
However, it is interesting that you should say this;
" ..whilst phoning pals about the two interceptors following "

I'm pretty sure I would have done.
By the way, it's interesting that you say this;
" ... that aircraft were heading for the White House, (the one they shot down I suspect) ..."

You would not have at the time, within the context of the occasion it had been reported that aircraft were heading for the White House, (the one they shot down I suspect) bloke did not know what to do and the media was down with no way of getting out of the city

"Lad in Washington, grid locked Washington, under his desk in sight of the White House asking what to do ..."
"Man the fuck up!", I would suggest.

Was living in the States at the time, got up in the morning to watch the news and I thought they were showing a film, saw the second plane crash in real time
Horrendous day

Yeah I went to Reading too, just to complete a dire day
Vivid memories of how we sourced data as the mainstream media was down
Lad in Washington, grid locked Washington, under his desk in sight of the White House asking what to do - ffs that was hairy
And of course the aftermath of Cantor Fitzgerald - bloody desperate times
