The 17th Anniversary of 9/11 is a couple weeks away. As a way to show that we will never forget...I'd like to ask that everyone change their avatar to either the front page of their hometown newspaper from that day or one that really stands out in their minds.
The one that sticks with me after all these years is from the SF Chronicle. That's still how I feel about what happened on that day.
Thanks in advance.

Look at what's below my avatar, and you will see why it hasn't changed. This is a worthy thing to ask of all of us.
Firerich7 may be gone, but he and his mates were/are heroes.

Indeed they were and still are.

Amen! Incredible to believe, but we have almost an entire generation whose members do not completely understand - and can never completely emotionally comprehend - what we experienced in those days. Tempus fugit!
In fact I mentioned the attack, and Islamic aggression in general since the 7th Century, in a quick review of basic history from Roman times to my Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Grade Latin classes a few days ago. Islamic terrorists think in centuries: they may be defeated, but any defeat is a defeat in a battle, not in a war. The war is constant: it never ends for them.
The reaction ranged from polite to "Huh?" So if they are representative, we have some work today, lest Islamic radicals take advantage eventually of their complacency and lack of historical thinking.

Tried to change my avatar and got this;
