Another year... remember the night 17 years ago

17 years ago, at night, I went for a meeting in preparation for my oncoming duty. After the meeting, I dropped by the duty room, and saw on TV images of an airliner flying into the World Trade Center in New York. This was followed by images of smoke from the Pentagon.

I called my mentor, basically got him out of bed (it was already quite late in Japan), and told him he needed to watch TV. Any channel would do, since it was on all channels.

17 years has gone by. 17 years since the world changed.
