Me too. Yesterday I really missed the old Bronze – it may have been the BronzeBeta then – and the other ex-pat boards I used to post at. I like Buffistas but I wasn’t here on 9-11-01 so I can’t access the collective "emotional memory" of this board. It's a strange sensation.
The Apollo Bronze went away in July, 2001. Kristen had taken down jw.net (or at least the boards we were using) and we had been in Vanessa's place for a month or so by 9/11. I think the UPN "Bronze" opened on October 1.
Apparently young kids in particular thought that each replay of the planes hitting the buildings, the towers falling, etc. was a brand new attack. Very upsetting for them.Oh my word. That's terrible. I never even thought that far ahead. I was upset they even caught a moment of it on the little TV. I remember being surprised Julia couldn't separate the TV from the house to the extent that when she saw fire on TV, since TV was in the house, she thought we should evacuate.
