I've recorded my narrative of Sept. 11 in audio. I wrote the story hours after the attack and since then, when I've told more of it here on this blog, people have responded, sending me email, telling me in other blogs to keep on witnessing, or just reading. And so, before I forgot the details, I decided to tell the fuller story of that day and to tell it instead of writing it.It starts with him getting out of the last train ever to arrive at the WTC station, just after the first aircraft hit... one of the most arresting pieces of oral history ever recorded.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.
Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.
Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.
As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
