Monday is 9/11 - five years since the WTC attack. My stomach churns painfully if I even think about that day but I continue to mentally replay my experience with a compelling morbid fascination. No matter what anyone says, unless you were there in NYC actually watching it happen - live - in front of your eyes, you weren't part of it. You may have lost friends or family or colleagues which is an absolute tragedy and an outragous offense to all decent, peaceful, broadminded people. But if you were watching it on TV, you weren't part of it, it's different for you.

In a typically non-creative media way, since they can't think of anything better, some of the TV channels plan to replay all their news coverage from 9/11 on Monday. They started that last night, in fact.
