  1. R. I. P. to two friends I lost on that day and to all those who perished either on that day or from various health afflictions contracted while helping with the rescue and recovery efforts. I will never forget what happened and what the twin towers meant to the city and me as a twin personally but, part of the healing process is acceptance and letting go. After 20 years of grieving and lamenting loss, it's well past time for closure. I really wish they would stop showing images of the planes flying into the towers and of the towers billowing black smoke while on fire. It does nothing to help anyone who lived through it the first time and only serves to induce anxiety and the reliving of painful memories many wish they could forget having witnessed entirely.

  2. 9/11 & NOW ??

    Overrun with war and uncontrolled leaders

    Our world becomes more dangerous each day.

    Dishonest politicians, criminals and the media

    Survive by their falsehoods at play.

    To evil’s victory, we must never concede

    May its supporter’s anguish in hell.

    By the grace of God and the power of faith

    The goodness of man shall prevail.

    What we accomplish is heaven’s measure

    As patriots respond to the threats of man.

    Protect and defend what we love till death

    As the soldiers of Satan arise from the land.

  3. Why is the Eiffel Tower shaped the way it is?
    Each lower portion must support all weight above. So 10,000 tons of wrought iron got that shape though it did not have to support thousands of tons of concrete.

    So how was the 100,000 tons of steel distributed down the North Tower which was 37% taller than the Eiffel? How can a straight down collapse in less than 30 seconds be explained without that data? The NCSTAR1 report by the NIST does not even specify the total amount of concrete in the towers.

    It is certainly curious that we do not have physical or virtual models of the North Tower collapse after 21 years. It only took 4 months to build a physical model of the Tacoma Narrows bridge in a wind tunnel to study the oscillations in 1940. They didn't have electronic computers to slow them down.
