I don't really believe in the concept of "death with dignity." (And any dead I've personally known have never come back to reassure me otherwise.)But the firemen's ceremony was a touching, and, yes, dignified one. Very well and simply done, and in one's heart that bell keeps ringing a long, long time.

I wish the real truth would be known to the entire world on what really happened on 911. On Sept. 11th & 12th 2005 will be the beginning of a major media campaign to bring to widespread awareness some of the problems with the Sept. 11th investigation. Here are three examples:
“A steel building survived fires in experiments with extreme temperatures beyond the rang possible with the jet fuel.” Cardington Fire Testing.
“No steel building has ever been destroyed by fire.” Fire Engineering Magazine.
“The specifics of the fires in WTC 7 and how they caused the building to collapse remain unknown at this time.” Federal Emergency Management Administration, May 2002.
Starting on Sept. 11th & 12th between 6 am and 12 pm in the NYC area, there are supposed to be 16 commercials on each of the following networks: CNBC, CNN, ESPN, Fox News, Headline News, MSNBC, Comedy Channel, History Channel, ABC Family, Lifetime, TNT, Oxygen, and Gala.
They are hoping to use this push to get more people to see the DVD: “Confronting the Evidence: A call to Reopen the September 11th Investigation.” http://reopen911.org/.
I lived in NYC and experienced the fatal day on 9/11; I saw the great flames, the building fall and smelt the dust and fumes for months. I at one time worked on the 97th floor of the South Tower and have lost many friends and neighbors…I will never forget that day and I believe the world needs to learn the truth about what really happen, most of all the American people.

yazzie:

Thanks for the website url.

Just like the Kennedy assassination and the Warren Commission Report will the public ever know the truth about the tragic events of 9/11/01; the collapse of the WTC and the destruction at the Pentagon.

But rest assured the memories of all those innocent victims will never be forgotten!
