I appreciate your response. Here's what it boils down to - we're all Americans under the skin, and we share a mutual feel for justice being meted out.

You are right, we'll never know the pain you must feel. But it must be horrendous because our hearts are still breaking for you all.

Eight month after 9-11 the tears still spring to my eyes every time I see a fire engine. I can't even imagine what it must be like for the people of New York. If it brings any comfort, you should know that the folks in flyover country realized how much we all love our fellow Americans and your pain is our pain.
