I left the office after 2 1/2 hours today. I couldn't work. I kept looking at accounts, trying to do my job, but unable to accomplish the basic task of typing. Then I saw the partial list of passengers on the hijacked planes.
I've only ever been involed in one online community ever - a "Fraiser" newsgroup. The producers of Frasier were regular posters in the group, and I felt a personal connection to them, even though we'd never actually talked face to face. David Angell and his wife, Lynn, wer passengers on Flight 11, which hit one of the Towers.
The knot in my gut was suddenly compounded by the pile of bricks that fell on me when I read his name.
I'm home now, pondering whether or not it's okay to like Exxon again.
