I respect the 911 victims every day. Posting or not posting on the topic is not going to change that. My computer says 11 Sept 2011 already and I'm in my usual 911 somber mood.
I spent several decades working around the area (ten years on the 77th floor of 1 WTC) and lost friends and associates that day, including a bunch of anonymous guys I used to chat with at lunch in St. Charlie's - the guys from Engine/Ladder 10 on Liberty Street.
I still have some of those images etched on the back of my retina from having watched much of it, including the most horrific parts, live. I'll have my own moment of silence (and my traditional hoist of a shot of cognac to all the victims) in about ten hours.
Whether or not one posts on an internet forum as some sort of grand gesture doesn't really matter. Personally, I need the release.
