people died ... thats about the only true similarity

i will still deny it affected the entire population ... my day to day has not changed between 9.10.01 and today and i guarantee i'm not the only one

and i was comparing WWII to the current 'war' when i said that, not PH and 9.11 ... i agree they have many similarites directly



i'm not arguing that its tragic people, im simply pointing out that its a lil much to expect the entire nation to mourn something 7 years after the fact that did not have a direct impact on all of them.

its understandable that people in NYC would still mourn ... it happened there ...
