Where were you exactly 10 years ago? I was supposed to be in the same area that morning for a business meeting. Thankfully, the other party rescheduled for a few hours later….
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
9-11-2001 – 9-11-2011 / Never Forget
Sad day for America.
A Happy Day for Bobby Fischer.
Hi Susan Polgar,
Human life is so precious and so honorable – its so sad & bad to know that its lost so horribly – Though we[Indians] are long away ( Distanced geographically )from America,we feel so sad & bad about the incident.
Living beings across globe should live in harmony & peace – Praying God to wish the same.
Human being’s conscience had not died – so I feel,everybody across globe would have felt sad about this incident.
May God rest those deceased souls, in peace.

Remember another 11 September.
9-11-1973.
Allende is no more president. pulled down by Pinochet.
3’000 deaths or missings during the 5 first years. 80’000 interned, 30’000 tortured during his reign.
Perhaps the number is not exact, but an entire country lived in terror and anguish.
Jail, disparitions, torture. This was not an exception. This was a system. A stadium was full of prisoners…
Remember September.
5 september 1972… Olympic games at Munich… Hostages. A 75 minute gunfight…
This was only an episode of the “lead years” in Europe.
Al-Qaida wasn’t there. Rote Armee Fraktion, Brigate Rosse, Euskadi Ta Askatasuna, Action directe, Irish Republican Army, Black September Organisation, Carlos were.
And they were responsible of many deaths.
Remember September.
Remember all Septembers.
I woke up at 6:00am Pacific time to get ready to go to school. I like to watch the news to see what goes on in the world. So I turned the television on cnn and i see a building that has a strange look about it. I’m trying to figure it out when I see something moving really fast on the screen. My mind formed a question; “What in the world…” I never got a chance to form the rest of the question because I saw a plane slam into a tall building. My eyes filled with tears. All I can think of is ” Those poor people in that plane; they all are dead”. It took about 15 seconds to think about all the people who were on the floors that were hit. I just knew they were dead too. I went to school in a daze. I don’t remember how I got home. All I could think of (when I was able to think; that was few and far between) was what happened after I left for school. Next thing I remember is seeing the aftermath of what happened after the plane slammed into the tower. I became sad and depressed and have been ever since. Those poor souls.
