I think that feeling will be around for a very long time Cameron. And we CANNOT forget ALL those innocent people that lost their lives. Being to New York on one of the "girls great adventures" I cannot imagine the gaping hole left in the middle of such a vibrant city. My cousin was on the ground floor having a breakfast meeting the day of the attack, he no longer works in New York, he transferred to Texas. It certainly touched many, many people. I agree we should all say a little prayer for those lost souls and their families. You're such a softie...Love ya, Marina
