Whatever happened on that day, a lot of innocent people died. Remember that when you see the disgraceful (yet well-timed for them) DVD releases and movies and all-day ratings grabbing "tributes" that there will no doubt be.

And a once a year chance to spawn a media frenzy rather than let the relatives come to terms with it in peace.

I don't understand why they feel the need to read the names out of everyone that died in NYC...the annual ceremony lasts for hours.

May all the innocent victims, firefighters, policemen and all the brave folks that risked their own lives to save others and lost their lives rest in peace.

May the families who lost a family member or friend or relative or to people who know someone that died may you have peace within yourself with the lose.

I think everyone remembers where they were that day.

I was still in the UK, coming out of a meeting and everyone was clustered around one pc. Someone said something about a plane hitting the towers and of course like most people I pictured a Cesna or something else small. I remember the internet being almost to a standstill due to people trying to access news sites. I also remember being worried as I was due to fly out to the USA in early october to get married and wasnt sure if I would be able to get there or not.

With regards to films. I don't think anything can top the documentary made by Jules and Gedeon Naudet, who were doing a documentary on New York Firefighters at the time. No commercialism, no actors, no hollywood bs, just ordinary people on an extraordinary day

That was shown again last night on CBS. They updated it to let people know what the firefighters were doing now.

Yeah, citing ridiculous and insulting conspiracy theories to make political hay, as you have done here repeatedly, is certainly "respectful".

Just wish they would have given more money to the firefighters & policemen who are now suffering with lung disorders etc.
