But to celebrate? No. <br /><br />It seems to have been mainly young people who have led the cheers, those young enough to have had their world largely shaped by 9/11 and its consequences. For that reason, I'm willing to give them a free pass on this one.sigersonhttp://www.shpvideo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10718822.post-74346333490767225712011-05-04T07:50:11.104-05:002011-05-04T07:50:11.104-05:00Thank you all...

It's just that the celebratory crew are louder and more attention-getting.
