EXCERPT:
In August 2001, Dan Rather, the former anchorman for the CBS nightly news, stood on top of a building facing the burning wreckage of the World Trade Center . Trying to be profound, he told the listening audience, “This is a day you will remember for the rest of your life.”Mr. Rather made that statement with the understanding that major calamities occur on an irregular basis. Unfortunately, events of the past year alone have cast great doubt on the likelihood that 911 will remain crystal clear in everyone’s memory.--------------
