I remember where I was when I heard the horrible news. Sad sad day indeed.

I remember I had a meeting with a professor to discuss my portfolio right after I heard. When I walked into his office, he asked if I needed to reschedule because I looked so depressed.

Dottie, I do believe you are correct. I snagged that right from the 'This Day in History" website......apparently they got it wrong, and I didn't catch it

All I remember of this was the smugness of both Bush and Cheney during a press conference around that time.

"Wasn't it in 2000?"

It was for everyone but Al Gore. It took him until 2003 to realize that the correct decision had been made.
