my opinion is that by remembering the past, it keeps those of us that care, grounded and everything in perspective. remembering why we are here and all that.

and i dont think its fair to compare pearl harbor to 9/11. pearl harbor was an attack on a naval base .. 9/11 was a direct attack on american civilians. i think thats a significant difference.
