In memoriam
"Wisdom of the grace of God that as we act,
we do not become the evil that we deplore."
- Rev. Nathan Baxter, Dean of Washington National Cathedral
Suffering from jetlag, I woke up in my Sydney CBD hotel room in the early morning hours (Australia east coast time) of 9/11/01 and switched on the TV to lull me back to sleep. It took me a moment to process the horror I was seeing broadcast from New York City, Washington, and Pennsylvania.
Like everyone, I'll always remember where I was when I learned about the attacks on our soil. Yet still, eight years later, I cannot fully understand them.
I agree with what Joe Brancatelli said in his column this morning:
"Today is the eighth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when four passenger aircraft were used as weapons against us. Three thousand people died. Their names and some of their pictures, if not their stories, are here:

"What else is there to say? I never seem to know."

I just checked and there are several non-stops DEN-BIL st $237 RT PP - so times 4 that is just over a grand, which is 300 more than your rental car. Of course you would have to carry on luggage .
