19 years ago today, on February 26, 1993 at 12:18pm, Islamic terrorists set off a bomb in the basement of the parking garage below the Twin Towers, causing panic, chaos, and six innocent deaths. Sadly, 8 years later the terrorists would succeed in toppling those wonderful buildings and causing even worse carnage. I would just like to hope everyone pauses for a moment and remembers those victims of that sometimes forgotten attack. The victims were:

Monica Smith, age 35
Robert (Bob) Kirkpatrick, age 61
Bill Macko, age 47
Stephen Knapp, age 48
John DiGiovanni, age 45
Wilfredo Mercado, age 37

Their names, along with the thousands killed in the 9/11 attacks are displayed at the memorial. RIP and hope their families are doing better 19 years later.

I absolutely remember that morning and the discussions that followed, many of which are haunting after 9-11. :yes:



That said, I'm moving this thread to the WTC section...

How is this possible? Especially when your display picture is that of the WTC?

That day... Wow... I remember I recorded a short clip from TV on NBC's coverage of the WTC bombing that evening. I still have that tape, but I dont think I have re-watched it since 2001.
