Debunking the debunkers...the jury is still out. Actually the case, like JFK's never went to a jury.

I was in the Trade Center having just gotten off the PATH train some time after the first plane struck and around 20 minutes or so before the second. I was standing half way up the block from the South Tower towards Broadway when I turned for a second and saw the second plane crash into it. Not knowing how far the debris field would spread I ran for my life down Broadway and was pelted by tiny pieces of debris and concrete dust. The outer pockets of my no longer used canvas attache case still contain remnants of the concrete dust. I ran to JPMorgan at 15 Wall Street where I had one of my two desks. Looking across the street at the NY Stock Exchange I thought it might be the next target so I ran to my other office located in the JP Morgan building at 60 Wall. St. If was from the 38th floor there that I had a clear view of the South Tower from around the 40th floor up and saw it quiver a bit, lean very slightly and start to pancake.

Although it will be 17 years tomorrow I have not gone back to the Trade Center site since that day. I can't do it. Too many bad memories of things I saw and friends lost. I can't even watch images of that day on TV. Tourists pay homage making the trek there but they can never understand what it was like to actually be right there. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Thanks for sharing your memories. Out here in what the newsies love to call "The American West," I cannot imagine the terror of that day and the subsequent pain.

I have lived in New York City long enough to have survived 9/11. I couldn't help but notice how some here posted images of that faithful day as we remember that day. That was 17-years ago, and for many of us it seems like yesterday. Yet, he has been 17 years, In that time we have grown as a nation but nowhere more so then right here in New York. In that time the city has rebuilt and recovered from that devastating time.
This year I would like us all to not only remember that day but celebrate today, and how we have recovered. We must never forget what happened but we must look to the future with hope and pride in ourselves at a nation. To that end I would like to offer the following images for your consideration...
