                <text>On the morning of September 11, immediately after two planes crashed into the World Trade Center in Manhattan, photojournalist Mark D. Phillips took a picture that would prove to be one of the most evocative and disputed images of that tragic day.  Many peple later construed the image of the smoke in his photo of the burning buildings to compose the face of Satan. These e-mails related to this picture provide a revealing portal into Americans' responses to the attacks in the immediate aftermath of 9/11.</text>

            <text>Good Morning Mr. Phillips, &lt;br&gt;I wanted to just send you a brief comment on your picture of the "devil" in the smoke of the WTC.&lt;br&gt;I think as a photographer you wait for an eternity for a photo like that one.&lt;br&gt;It's one thing to know evil exists....it's quite another to look it directly in the face.&lt;br&gt;I think your photograph is an important one.&lt;br&gt;There was a vast amount of evil in that building on September 11th&lt;br&gt;and you were able to capture it in those photos.&lt;br&gt;I'm thankful for that.&lt;br&gt;I hope it moves people to really look at the pics....think about that face....and realize just how precious life is....even with the everyday trials and tribulations of life......we're still blessed to be alive.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So.....THANK YOU.&lt;br&gt;Your picture says more than mere words could begin to.&lt;br&gt;It has affected me in many ways.&lt;br&gt;I can't imagine how you must have felt shooting these pictures but I can tell you that the images shot will live in our hearts and minds forever.&lt;br&gt;Thank you for that!! &lt;br&gt;Have a great day!!!!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Becky &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</text>
