May the victims rest in eternal peace and their families be comforted by God.
May God grant us peace.

Ja Mata, Tosa.
The poorest man may in his cottage bid defiance to all the forces of the Crown. It may be frail; its roof may shake; the wind may blow through it; the storm may enter; the rain may enter; but the King of England cannot enter – all his force dares not cross the threshold of the ruined tenement! - William Pitt the Elder

My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of those terrible attacks and their families.
"I'm going to die anyway, and therefore have nothing more to do except deliberately annoy Lemur." -Orb, in the chat
"Lemur. Even if he's innocent, he's a pain; so kill him." -Ignoramus
"I'm going to need to collect all of the rants about the guilty lemur, and put them in a pretty box with ponies and pink bows. Then I'm going to sprinkle sparkly magic dust on the box, and kiss it." -Lemur

It's quite something.
Re: In Remembrance
It seems incredible that the events of that fateful day are seven whole years in the past.
If it feels so immediate to someone like me, I can only imagine how the families still feel. I hope that they have found some peace and resolution and that whatever faith sustains them, continues to heal.

I don't have anything particularly eloquent to add, just condolences and prayers.

Re: In Remembrance
I hate to say when this happened i was only 11, and it was live on t.v. I just watched it and thought it was a new movie they were releasing... Now adays I look back on it and think how ignorant I was. A very sad day, and may I quote
I know the dates wrong but it still has the same meaning with 9/11/01Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, members of the Senate and the House of Representatives: yesterday, December 7th, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked...

Re : In Remembrance
Seven years, and I'm still at a loss for words. I feel an urge to say something meaningful. Not profound, not eloquent, just meaningful. The words don't come. No shame in borrowing from wiser men:
I hope that the families of the victims have found some peace and resolution and that whatever faith sustains them, continues to heal.
Re: Re : In Remembrance
My condolences
I'll never forget my panic, or more touchingly - watching my mother panic - because my grandparents were in New York that day. I was only 11 at the time, but I will still never forget that concern (Yes they were fine). I can only begin to imagine what it would be like to lose someone in one of these attacks.
Rest in Peace TosaInu, the Org will be your legacy
