Anniversary

[poliphilo]

I've just looked at the date.

Oh my- 9/11!

Why wasn't I apprised of this? Why weren't the papers full of commemorative stuff?

I guess because we've moved on. We have Iraq to worry about. Katrina has changed the paradigm just as the attack on the twin towers once did.

This is a fast-moving century.

We're packing more history into the available time than we ever did before.

Hopefully that will mean the world will no longer expect the Sun, the Moon and the stars from us any longer. The cost to rebuild New Orleans will exceed the billions of dollars that we spent rebuilding Europe and the U.K. after WW II. Thank god those nations are grateful for our efforts and will donate their money to help American citizens just like we have done for them. They will help won't they?
