911 going forward

We all know it been 15 years now. It's changed things for better or worse. anniversaries make us all remember the past . Much has been said about the worst attack in this countries history. Going forward , not much more can be said about what we all have seen by now. I just watched the cbs video about the 911 memorial and thought it would be appropriate to link here , not so much to remanence over the play by play aspect of of the events of 9-11-2001 but to see how life goes on as this atrocity moves further and further in our side view mirrors.

We have the desire to move-on from 911 but we also have the need to remember it.
One reason our economy is growing so slowly is because of the additional security requirements placed on businesses spawned by the 911 tragedy.
My emotions on 911 range from revenge to isolationism. I live in a community where many good Muslims live. I met many good Muslims when I was in the middle east for Desert Shield/Storm. I just don't know how to feel about 911.

9/11 was not the beginning, or the end. The next steps will be exponentially worse.

It has changed us for better AND for worse. Actually more accuratly it has brought out the better and the worse in us, I don't think it 'changed' anyone.
