So where were you - When you heard about wtc bombings?

[Arthur Dent]

As much as I'll never forget watching what happened on tv, what affects me even more is the smell my first day back in Manhattan.

Yeah, that smell was around for weeks. It was everywhere.

There's a post office on Canal Street that I sometimes pass on my way into work if I take a different train into work. The one wall of the building takes up almost the entire block and that whole wall was covered as high as a person could reach with flyers from people looking for their loved ones. With more fliers on every phone booth, light pole, and anything else people could tape an 8.5x11 piece of paper to. I don't think I saw any image on TV that really brought home the human loss like those fliers.
