Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Our office was a couple miles north of WTC and some of the corner offices looked straight dow Avenue of the Americas with a view of the towers. I walked into one of those corner office a couple seconds after the second tower collapsed.
Family from home were concerned not understanding how far away I was and I had a hard time contacting them to let them know that I was ok.
I was in NYC for a practice meeting the next morning. I recall walking through Times Square for a practice meeting the next morning and there were at most a dozen people in all of Times Square... eerie.
After the meeting I'm at my desk and my boss shows up and says "Don't you have someplace better to be?".... IOW, get your butt home. Since Manhattan was all but locked down I ended up taking a train to Hartford and then drove a rental car home.
Definitely will never forget 9/11.... horrible day. So sad that the comaderie inspired by that tragedy dissipated so quickly.
