I got a borrow of this from a friend a while back and came across it while clearing out and thought this would be an ideal book to recommend on the site. This book is a heroic account of how fireman Pitch Picciotto survived the collapse of the twin towers and led his men to safety. |

That's great. I think it would be very moving to visit Ground Zero but something I would like to do. Have you ever been to NY? I went there in 2000 for Christmas shopping. I seen the twin towers and I just cant imagine what the skyline would be like without it. I have seen pictures and it does miss them a great deal but to see it in person would be heartbreaking. |

Visiting the WTC site is quite a moving experience - I love New York and have been to the site a couple of times. It still takes quite a bit for the effect to really sink in. I heard recently that it's one of the factors affecting the sky-rocketing house prices in Scotland and elsewhere - people are more keen to move away from places like London and enjoy life in a more relaxed way. |

a very good point...the likelyhood of being an Al Qaeda victim, in a rural area ,is alot less ,than in a major city. |

A couple of my friends have been to NY recently for a couple of days and they really enjoyed it. I hope the site doesn't become a tourist site that would be disrespectful for the relatives. |
