[QUOTE="Old One, post: 98013, member: 83"] [b]Memories...[/b] The wife and I were headed out the door to catch a plane to London, England for a long-planned trip. I had arranged to meet up with Plane Sailing, Monte Carlo and a couple of other old EN Worlders at a London Pub for a pint or two. Needless to say, we didn't make the trip. We spent most of the morning staring at the TV in disbelief, then met some friends at a local pub around 2 PM EST. There were about 10 people there when we arrived, but by 3:30 PM, the place was packed. I guess people didn't want to be alone. I tried to get ahold of some West Point classmates that were working in the Pentagon and got word late in the day that they were all fine. I also had a good friend from an old gaming group that did computer work in the WTC and another that worked at a hospital in Lower Manhatten. The computer worker didn't go to the WTC that day, working instead from his NJ office in Hoboken...right across the river. He watched the entire thing from his office window. He told me latter that if he had followed his normal schedule, he would have been passing through the PATH station when the first train hit. My doctor friend treated about 20 burn victims that came in the first wave of refugees. He and his OR staff stood by for 12 hours, waiting to receive other mass casualties that never came...they wounded either came early or didn't come at all. Never forget! ~ Old One [/QUOTE]
