I hit midnight after all of you but I'm also an early crasher so consider this my midnight bump.

We should all light some candles tomorrow night...

I am reminded of 9/11 every single day. Every single day, we as Americans HAND OVER our civil liberties in the name of "protection". 9/11 has etched a spot in my brain never to be forgotten. The literal END OF AMERICA as we know it, 9/11. Those who died did so SO THAT WE AS AMERICANS WOULD LOSE EVERY SINGLE CIVIL LIBERTY WE STILL HAD LEFT. The Bill of Rights is DEAD. This isn't a day of celebration or a day of mourning those lost--this is a day to reflect on the rights we ONCE HAD, which have now been taken away. This is a day to HATE the braindead "heartland" of America for buying into the so-called patriot act. This is a day we regret ever electing GW BITCH. This is a day to PLAN OUR ESCAPE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY, as this one is no longer free. Pack your bags, folks, because Cuba is looking pretty damn good now. The United States of Nazism is pretty damn disgusting, and it's only going to get worse.

"Shortly after September 11, 2001, NPR's Lost & Found Sound brought together radio producers, artists, historians, archivists, and the public broadcasting community to collect and preserve audio traces of the World Trade Center, its neighborhood and the events of 9/11. Lost & Found Sound and NPR set up the Sonic Memorial phone line (877-894-8500) to record your stories and collect audio contributions.

Your response has been remarkable and moving. We never could have imagined all that is out there—tapes of weddings atop the World Trade Center, recordings of the buildings' elevators and revolving doors, home videos made by a lawyer in his 42nd floor office, sounds of the Hudson river front, recordings of late night Spanish radio drifting through the halls as Latino workers clean the offices, an interview with the piano player at Windows on the World, voicemail messages from people who worked in the World Trade Center.

Hundreds of people from around the world have called offering their recordings—making this a dramatic, unprecedented audio archive of immediate, first-person accounts chronicling a historic event from almost every vantage point."

Because I haven't seen any thread about it on any of the boards...

Did anyone watch "The Flight That Fought Back" Sunday night on the Discovery Channel?

It was very compelling, made even moreso by being shown commercial free.

I shed a lot of tears. :(

I missed that, Femme. I watched a different 9/11 special on HBO last week, and it was pretty emotional for me, too. Thankfully, Bush was never mentioned in it.
