All of us remember exactly what you were doing when you heard the towers were hit.  I can still remember the way the room smelled that I was in.  It was a terrifying day and I remember I called both of my parents and told them how much I loved them.  It really rocked my world and it still does.  After the jump there's a video that was just released and it's still hard to watch.

Then after the first tower fell, they got footage from above the toxic dust filling the streets of Lower Manhattan.
