I do not forget

Seven years ago to the moment, I was sit­ting on the floor in a crowded TV lounge in the GPC Stu­dent Cen­ter with dozens of fel­low fac­ulty and stu­dents, watch­ing in hor­ror as the news replayed video of the World Trade Cen­ter tow­ers burn­ing and col­laps­ing, of the gap­ing and burn­ing hole in the Pen­ta­gon, over and over and over, sear­ing itself into our memories.

I have not for­got­ten.? I will not forget.
