After all even Ming has a heart for other humans. 
My thoughts are today in the events 1 year ago and all the victims; dead or alive, that were affected by this unexpected tradegy.  I hope that this incident has changed things into something positive too.
May God protect all the family and friends of those who perished at 11.9.2001.

343 firefighters, cops etc died trying to save people. When people die trying to save someone else, unknown stranger, they become true heroes who will be always remembered, never forgotten.
Comfort to the ones who lost their loved ones in that horrible day. Hopefully this will never happen again.

Although posting from the other side of the world makes it difficult to reconcile the TV pictures with reality, there is certainly one thing I feel deeply.
Put an end to terrorism. All of it. Everywhere. For good.
For those who died, so no more need be lost.
May God bless Americans.

Every day when I take the ferry and pass the hole in the skyline I remember what we lost. Today is just the worst day of remembering.

Saw a terrible front page today. It read "Here Anne's husband dies". It was a blown up picture of ppl standing in the window frames in the WTC - one of the towers. Her husband was at 106th floor leaning downwards from the window frame. A looong way down....must have been really scary - I guess most ppl would be afraid of heights that far up... Plus the fires inside etc.
When I saw the incident on tv I kept thinking: All those ppl waving outside the windows - they're dead now!! There was no hope for them after the buildings collapsed... Really sad.

Perhaps these boards themselves are one of the best examples of a memorial for which we can strive in this
little worldly community of ours.
I wish peace and understanding to all of you.

My condolences ... especially to those of you Apolytoners who lost a relative or a friend.
May God give the US a peace which is stronger than hatred.

My brother apparantly made a point today of putting the stereo up as loud as possible, in order to disrupt the silence. I think callous, cold hearted people like him will be rejected by society, and treated as the heartless idiots they are.
My heartfelt sympathys to anyone affected by the attacks in any way.
NEVER FORGET.

I was the only one in my Economics set to observe the 1 minute's silence. I was rather annoyed - even my teacher ridiculed it, saying it wasn't necessary.

People who say a one minute silence is not necessary are disgusting.
I went to a ceremony and remembered those who were lost but not forgotten.
Spain, and we understand suffering, we have been racked by terrorism from desperate and declining seperatist groups. We will always stand with the US. (Sorry Xarxo Spain is one country not two or three)
And I hope all of those terrorists and terrorist supporting bastards like Saddam Hussein die. They don't deserve to live... they take life without remorse and that is a fact.

Same here. I remember being in class and watching the events unfold before my eyes on televison. Those images will never leave my mind, ever. I forsee my children and grandchildren asking me about that day like I asked mine about Pearl Harbor and the Cuban Missle Crises and stuff. I am saddened immensly by the death and destruction not only on 9/11, but all over the world, everyday. Someday it will come to an end, for humanity's sake it must, or we will bring ourselves to an end.
Peace,
Kman

I woke up early this morning, to catch as much of the coverage as I could before i left for school.
And as I watched all the relatives and great volounteers who read out the names of those who were lost, something hit me. I had thought about it before, but exactly how grave it was only hit me just then. For every name that was read, there was a lifetime to remember, and uncountable people who lost someone. Quite Trajic.
I will never forget September 11th, 2001. Never.

My thoughts go out to all those who have died in, or who have lost friends or family in terrorist attacks.
Today, during this most infamous of anniversaries, my thoughts are especially with those who died or who lost friends or family during the terrorist attacks of September 11th 2001.

Wow... that drawing is awesome... me and redjon have one thing in common after all... we like to draw...
Today, I turned on the TV and nearly started to cry.... I put aside my macho behavior and thought of the attacks, the people who were affected and it was overwhelming... way too overwhelming....
