t want to be anonymous any more. I want you to know that my name is Elizabeth Baker, so that I become a person to you, not just a user name.
My name is Liz, and today I am reaching out to you.

Liz, I completely see your point, and couldn't agree with you more. At a time like this, so many people can come into your mind, and you just wonder what became of them...
All the innocents whose injuries and deaths are so heartwrenching, all the families affected, all the rescue workers who still have many many hours of most difficult work ahead of them, should be in all of our thoughts and prayers.

It is a new day and we will, world wide, survive this horror, and we will learn how to pick up the pieces, go on with our lives and eventually the horror of the coming days will be a dim memory, something we will talke about to our children and grandchildren, who, hopefully, will never have to face so dark an hour.
Elizabeth's statement of non anonymity is a powerful one. I join she and Donna. We will no longer be faceless, no longer wonder if a colleague's name is on that list. Take it to the next level and here, in this place among colleagues, I urge you all to be counted today. Solidarity is a wonderous thing, it empowers, it speaks to the world and though we are admins on a board in cyber space, just this once, just for today, let's be people.

I can't say anything more than what's already been said.
Although I don't kow anyone personally who was directly involved, I am an American citizen, and as such, I find myself tearing up everytime I think about all those people. I am praying today for everyone involved in this terrible tragedy.
I, too would like to be counted today.

Yes, this is a new day and my heartfelt prayers go out to all the families who have lost loved ones in this tragedy and to all the rescue workers who have a tough and grim job ahead of them, hopefully they will be able to get some survivors out, but thoughts and prayers are with them today and in the days ahead.

Like so many of you, I find myself profoundly emotionally effected by yesterday's tragedy. Pray for the victims of this horrific attack, pray for the families, pray for the emergency workers. Pray for each other, and I'm so happy to have found a place where we can call each other friends, and share our support. You are all in my thoughts today, and will be everyday.

I have never been more proud to be associated with this site.
I am still shaking but trying to recover by telling myself that, after we survive, we shall THRIVE.

I work for a major airline. All I can say is yesterday was a very trying, scary, emotional day. The unknown is terribly frightening and as you can imagine we had lots of unknown yesterday. Was that one of our our planes? Were all of our aircraft accounted for? Was our ticket agents in the WTC alive, hurt, what? I am happy to report that all of our aircraft and employees are alive and accounted for.
Today marks many many changes for the airline industry as well as our country. Now is the time for us as Americans to stand together and tell the world that we WILL NOT stand by and allow this type of tragedy on our soil. We will hunt down and punish those responsible for this act of terrorism.

My thoughts and prayers are with all involved, which includes not only those who were injured or killed, or those involved in the rescue efforts, but everyone in this country. I'm a frequent lurker & sometime poster at TAA, but today I'd like you to know that I am
