Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I was at my desk listening to the radio when it was interupted stating that a plane crashed into the World Trade Center and that details were sketchy. My first reaction was that it was a plane crash never in a million years would I have imagined what was to come. Then another interuption saying another plane crashed into the other World Trade Center that is when panic set in my stomach I had a sick feeling that this was not a unsuspected plane crash. I spoke to other people in the office who also heard the news (I worked in the Boston Stock Exchange Building) and we decided we had to get out of there. In the meantime my son who is a shuttle driver for Hyatt at Boston Logan Airport called in a panic to get out of the building and get home these are terroist not plance crashes. When I exited the building it was chaos in the streets of Boston it was like we were being bombed you could see the anxiety and fear on people's faces. The train stations were packed with people everyone speaking to each other about what was going on as if we really understood that early in the game. When I finally got home I immediately put on the news and heard more details it was the most scary and shocking news I have ever heard I thought Kennedy's assisanation was horrific this was worse. I live right near Logan Airport and the quiet of no overhead planes just an occasional airforce jet were eerie. I think of the event almost daily with a pain in my heart for all the innocent lives lost that dreadful day and will bow my head and pray in silence on September 11, 2002.
