    If complacency can be counted, then I suppose the 37 postings (thus far today) on "The Never Ending Story in Three Words" vs the 4 postings on "Nothing Big This Year 9-11" might be a pretty accurate census.

    Yes Mac you are so right and complacency is indeed the problem. Thank you for reminding us.

    I feel a little insulted to be called complacent because I did not post my feelings in this thread. I don't think anyone who was old enough to know what was going on on that horrid day will ever forget it, but we all have our own ways of rembering and my way is privately.
    It is interesting that your post, MacMillan, was about the complacency of others and nothing about you remembering 9-11 yourself.

    Anyway-enough of that. Now that I'm here I would like to say that my heart goes out to those who can NEVER forget that dreadful day, namely the friends and families of those who died.

    I would also like to thank those troops from many nations who are fighting in Afghanistan, that we may be safe.
    Because I think we will always be as free as we are today but our safety, in no small way, depends on those troops doing their very dangerous jobs.

    Thank you. We are deeply indebted to you all.

    Peter
