This Too, Is New York

I saw the lines of people looking at the photographs of the attack of their city on 9-11. People's faces showing their emotions, remembering the full horrors of that day. People with blood and ash on their faces. People crying and scurrying away-literally running for their lives! One fireman said, he was so busy working he didn't feel the full impact until he saw the photos! He broke down. The photos were taken by professinals as well as amateurs with the proceeds going to the children's fund. It was an azazing scene. This too, is New York!
