I'm curious as to weather east coasters feel this way more than those of us on the west coast who, while just as riveted to what was going on, were still thousands of miles away. Here's one data point: It seems that everyone I knew in upstate NY, including myself, at the time was a mere one degree away (a friend of a friend, that is) of knowing someone killed in the NYC portion of the attacks. Additionally, I still have relatives who reside in Manhattan, I have visited NYC many times, have many friends from NYC, and have worked and lived in Manhattan for several months at a time (business weekdays, that is) over my tenure as a software consultant. The connection was there and the anger and sadness is still too close to the surface, despite the five years it has been, for me to be able to sit through the movie. The relatives of those killed on that flight are incredibly strong to be able to do so. -- Peter |
