To this day, stories are still done on December 7th regarding Pearl Harbor. It will never cease. And for good reason. 9/11 was the most prolific attack on US soil in the history of the US. I don't think its a matter of moving on; people aren't wandering the streets wondering what to do next, they have moved on and continued their lives. There is a big difference between "moving on" and recalling historic events to learn from them and be moved by them.

In most instances, it's beyond "recalling historic events" and just unessacary dwelling. Last year, CNN played their entire 9/11 day broadcast, starting at the exact time the first plane hit. Why.. what the hell purpose does that serve? Here, let's all watch again first hand how thousands of people lost their lives. UT! Let me rewind it.. OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

On the 50th anniversery of Pearl harbor, my great uncle was there, to remember that day and to spend it with the people who were effected the most. He doesn't go back, year after year to relive something so horrific.

Let me know what's up on 9/11/51
