I just hope that you are right. So many people seemed to forgot what has happened on that day.

I've personally lost so many friends on that day.

Absolutely beautiful job!

"Heros" should be "Heroes", but it's a minor point on such a powerful dio. Fantastic job!

Yes, I'm afraid you're right to point. Remember the waves of patrioism after the attack? You couldn't find a flag around here for miles. I guess we have gone on with our lives.

Sorry to hear of your loss, I'm sure it's quite painful.

Back to the dio. Excellent job all around. Really conveys the feelings of that day.
