I know 17 NYC firefighters personally. I have spoken to 9 of them in the last two days. None of them found the ad disgraceful or tasteless. Some of them thought that it was a reminder of what they went through and what most citizens have forgotten.

Bush was President during that fateful day. Doesn't he have the right to mention it? I'm sure past Presidents have used wars and or tragedies in their campaigns in the past. Doesn't Giuliani have the right to mention 9/11 in a book or in any speach that he is paid to speak in?

9/11 is a reality. Sometimes people are too wrapped in their own lives to remember what happened only two and half years ago. It seems to me like it happened so long ago.

I was only a few blocks away when the towers fell. I don't know if I can ever correctly explain what I saw or how I felt on 9/11.
