I was disappointed in the lack of TV coverage this year. We had the Today show on from 8 AM on and they didn't mention it once. Not even at the Minute of Silence for when the first plane struck.

Tonight's national news gave it the first 2.5 minutes.

I remember watching in horror as it unfolded - not wanting to see it, but unable to look away.

Me too ... and for days afterwards too.

Last month, I finally read "Top of the World, The Cantor Fitzgerald Story of 9/11." Kept meaning to read all these years. It is very well written; brought it all back and put me in a 3 days depression.

It was a horrible event and I feel sorry for all the people who died and for the relatives and friends of those killed. I was at home and when I heard the headline I thought "surely there were no passengers on the plane". It just boggled my mind and made me feel uneasy as more planes crashed and tv was saying the planes had passengers and many people were killed in the crashes. It was hard for me to believe that anybody would be mean enough or crazy enough to hijack planes full of people and crash into buildings. I still find it difficult to believe that people would do that--unbelievable. I remember I watched tv continually to see what was happening.
