I was in Taiwan when it happened
I had just moved there a month ago, a couple months actually after the big earthquake (5-21 or something)
I remember seeing it on tv and watching the tower come down.
Talked to my friends back in the states about it.
Let us not only remember those who died but also those who helped out after the disaster
I've heard many suffered psychological traumas afterwards and because of all the ash and dust many developed lung problems also. I believe many were volunteers who went down to ground-zero to help.
I got one of those Beanie Babies that honors the police, hospital, firefighters, and there's one more that I don't remember which it was
I got Sarge, a german shepherd, which honors the police who were there that day.
