US marks 25 years since the Sept. 11 attacks, ‘moments that divide time’

I heard the first reports on the car radio and then watched the second one live on cnn. A b-grade action movie script suddenly became reality and the world changed forever. Totally surreal.
 
Weird story. Back in 2001 I was in class with a muslim chap who absolutely hated America, and an afrikaans guy who was the complete opposite, he adored America (to a worrying degree).

The day after the Sept 11 attacks the muslim classmate brought gatsbys for the class in celebration (wtf), he was so happy. The other classmate was so distraught that he left school early, and never came back.
