Do you honestly think that the security screenings are effective, or are they simply security theater designed to make us feel better.

I was working in Weehawken, NJ at the time on the 9th floor of an office building which is right on the river. Someone came into the office i was in and said "A plane has crashed into the WTC!" I thought it was a small airplane and i went running down the hall to the executive conference room, which has a beautiful view of the city.

The way were were situated we could see building 2 fine, building 1 was behind it.

I and the rest of the office were glued there, and we watched in stunned silence as the second plane hit. I knew then it was a terrorist attack. We had no idea what the fuck was going on however, all we could see was a huge pile of dust rising from the base of building 2. We had no idea that was building one collapsing, we thought it was car bombs or something going off.

Then the 2nd tower fell. Everyone was crying, and i remember one guy next to me trying to call his daughter over and over again, getting more and more panicked.

Wait, pot is gret for people with anxiety issues? Whenever I used to smoke i would get paranoid as hell.

What do you think of whats going on in New York lately, with the showdowns between the Mayor and the Police Unions?

jesus, i wish i had not started remembering, because now i'm remembering more details. Like the fact that a guy had binoculars in his office. I remember now looking through them and looking at the fires up close (this is before the 1st tower fell) and seeing stuff falling from the buildings.
