Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just left a meeting and I was driving across the bridge from Manayunk to Bala Cynwood when I heard a local radio DJ said, "A plane has just crashed into the World Trade Center, where going to go to commerical and be right back." That is when I changed the radio back to The Howard Stern Show to get a better understanding of what was going on. I called my office and told them to turn the TV on. "What channel?" "It doesn't matter." On 9-11-02 The Howard Stern Show ran a reply of the horrific events and I can still remember where I was the day I heard the replay. I had talked to my Girlfriend later on in the day only to hear that a fellow employee's sister had worked there. My sister had called me at my office crying like I had never heard he before. As it turned out she knew one of the pilots. A couple employees at a manufacturer I work with were outside in Western, PA when they saw the plane go down. That night I sat on a couch with my Girlfriend and her roomate just watching the news thinking what is next, and as many people thought when does the official annoucement of Bin Laden being the attacker come? It is very eery to think growing up we hear our parents tell us that they remember where they were when events such as JFK, etc. happened. Never did I think this would happen, at this magnatude, that I will be telling my son about what happened on 9-11 and even though I didn't directly know a victim it is still heart wrenching and tear jerking to remember.
