"There are few days I can remember with such clarity. I was working for my brother at his office. One of the guys called in to say 'If you have a TV, turn it on now.' I ran to the closet and pulled out the little portable TV with a manual antenna. I couldn’t believe what we were watching. Then, we saw the second plane heading to the towers. My immediate reaction was this is ‘a real war of the worlds’ - like a second Pearl Harbor."
