#WhereWereYou when the Twin Towers fell?
#WhereWereYou 7th grade, English. Assistant principal came in and told the teacher. After she left, the teacher told us. I didn’t believe it

In a deli getting coffee. They had the TV on. I then went outside, looked downtown and saw the North Tower burning. #WhereWereYou

I saw it live on the morning news. Ran through my house screaming, then had to face classrooms of teens & try to explain.

I remember how blue the sky became when the planes stopped flying. The stillness as the wheels and gears stopped turning. #WhereWereYou

#WhereWereYou working as a surveyor in the CA oilfields. It was eerie to see tough roughnecks listening to truck radios, some even crying.
