Guys, I was there. After the Twins went down, My ametuer Radio Club was deployed by Emergency management. My callsign Is N2ZGW. You can look me up on QRZ.com It was so herrific that I will not talk about it. I was lucky because I live 30miles east of the shithole (NYC) but many of my friends and loved ones were not.
However. I would suggest you all check out this movie on the internet.
Do a google on a flik called (zeitgeist) and look for the 2007 official release. You may or may not believe it but it will get you thinking. Have some time on your hands because it's a 2hr movie. As a Native New Yorker, I simply cannot forget the images that have been perminently imbedded in my mind. I am wellin up as I write this message. God rest there soles.
On the lighter side. A Joke.
Some of you will enjoy this more than others - Southerners can be so polite!
