It's 9/11, and I'm sure there are going to be a great many posts about those terrible events ten years ago. This will be my one and only post about it today.
There's a great site at http://www.historycommons.org/project.jsp?project=911_project which shows all the events of 9/11 as collected from news stories, books, current events and interviews, and presents them in super comprehensive timeline of the events stretching from the 1970 to today.
There's a lot there, including some tidbits like a possible attempt on the President Bush's life early that morning, a fifth hijacking that was thwarted by a quick thinking captain, and the mass confusion that was just recently revealed by the released tapes of the FAA, but have been reported here for years.
It's sobering stuff.
