Thank you very much for that.
I wish that it would be played nightly, on all networks, so that the students of Berkley, and the impatient individuals that think we're in a "quagmire" could remember exactly what's going on.

I emailed them a thank you, and below is the reply:
This is an autoresponse due to the volume of e-mail I am receiving on the
America Attacked 9 1 1 page that I created located at http://attacked911.tripod.com and www.politicsandprotest.org (formerly at www.powforum.org/wtc).
Due to the tremendous demand that this page has created, the bandwidth has
gone through the roof. As I understand it, the normal traffic for my entire
Internet Provider is 10bps per month. This page is drawing 45 bps per day
and I had to bring the page down temporarily. I am going to start listing
mirror sites on the www.powforum.org/wtc site so that in the event I go
down again, the page can still be viewed. Hopefully that will solve the
problem.
This has been a work-in-progress and began the day after the attack at the
World Trade Center and Pentagon. I survived the attack itself by being late
to work that day, but I lost many people who were not so lucky. I created
the page to honor those I lost, those that America had lost and all of
those dedicated, caring human beings who responded to this wanton cowardly
act and who we refer to simply as heroes.
This has effected me to the core of my soul. My soul cries out for those
that I lost, those I didn't know, for my city, for the Pentagon, for the
nation. The page has evolved to what it is now; a remembrance of those that
were taken, those who sacrificed their lives in order to sustain our
national resolve. We must remember what it is our nation is responding to
and keep our flag waving proudly.
Since September 11, I have had the sensation of shaking on the inside and I
frequently hold out my hands to make sure that I am not shaking. I suppose
that it will subside with time. I know that we will overcome this dark,
dark tragedy but I don't think that we will get over it. And I am not too
sure that we should ever get over it. We live in a free society but with
that freedom comes responsibility. It is our responsibility to continue
forward, not allowing these horrific events to change our lives; otherwise
the sub-human animals that perpetrated this on us wins.
For those of you who view this as "an opportunity to cease the cycle of
violence," I want to remind you that there were 8,000 elementary school
children, in grades pre-K through the 5th grades, that had to be evacuated
from schools they attended in the shadows of the twin towers. Some of whom
had parents that worked in one of the 5 buildings that came down. Some of
which no longer have mommies, daddies or both. Once we avenge their deaths,
once we adequately respond to the worst attack on US soil, then, perhaps,
you can talk to me about stopping the cycle of violence. Because as far as
I am concerned, that is exactly what we are doing right now. Making sure
that the world knows that when you do this to the United States, you risk
unleashing a wrath that you never, ever dreamed of.
We must never forget September 11, America's Day of Emergency, we must
remember that there is a price for freedom and a responsibility to
freedom. It is our responsibility to defend freedom. Last item and I will
get off my soap box: We did not ask for this war. We did not start this
war. We will finish this war. We must because if we do not, the message we
send is that it is OK to kill thousands of our countrymen and we don't have
the resolve to see justice done.
The music on this page is by Enya and the title is Only Time. You have
already downloaded the page. Go to your WINDOWS/TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES
folder and look for attack.swf (it's large, 7.3 megs). COPY that file
(don't move it) to another folder. Then you can copy it to a zip disk or
burn it to a CD. If you link to the page that I keep this tribute on, www.powforum.org/wtc please inform me by e-mail so that I can apprise you
of any updates. All other users, do a find file or folder and look for
attack.swf. Then copy that to another folder. Please note that you will
have to open it in your internet browser if you do not have flash installed.
Again, thank you for the e-mail and as time permits I will personally
respond to as many as I can. I am humbled by the demand for this page and
am deeply, deeply grateful for the overwhelming support for it.
God Bless New York. God Bless Virginia. God Bless America. We will prevail.
Regards,
Steve Golding

Yeah that brought tears to my eyes too, and I do think that retribution is completely warranted. The only problem is I don't think were getting the sick fucks who did this, mostly it's just a lot of unfortunate people in the wrong place at the wrong time.
