Reply #76: Well, like I said, I'm not watching, so that was from what I read here. [View All]

I'm close to NYC here in NJ. None of my friends or relatives who work in the city were killed or injured that day, thankfully, but people in my neighborhood and town were. My kids go to school with kids who were directly effected and fighter jets shook my house that day. I also literally drove by the Times Square bombers truck that night while in the city for dinner.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm right here but I've never gone to 'ground zero' nor had any desire to. I have many friends and acquaintances who feel the same way I do, only they are probably more tactful and nicer than I am. ;)

It may be a regional attitude thing, not sure.
