September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. I heard today on the radio Bush talking to Pataki and Guiliani, his capacity to get out a sentence was so limited, it was scary, Pataki and Guiliani had to bail him out and supply words for him. Then there was a press conference where he immediately segued into a written script and went back to it to obviously after a stuttering effort to get out an answer. I hope somebody, in or out of the US is prepared to bail us out with some leadership I'm off tomorrow,8 hours without the news on the radio. karen said she cancelled the big birthday party for Nathan, she didn't feel right celebrating. I have not wanted to be alone and I have indulged that, phoning, emailing, going to meetings, services, socializing after meetings. I am sure you are seeing the same in your neighborhood, but here we have a tremendous number of financial district workers because it was a quick commute. At the synagogue last night during the misheberach, the number of names called out was a lot. tonight there was a candlelight vigil on the promenade where we look out on the Manhattan financial district skyline. The promenade was 8 blocks long of people with candles, flower bouquets, quiet groups talking to each other. Kids sitting on the ground around a circle of candles. One group was surrounding the woman who does the performance art of the Statue of Liberty and they were singing as many patriotic songs as they could remember. There was an Orthodox man singing psalms Shlomo Carlebach style and I stopped and sang, and after a while when he had gathered enough men for a minyon he made a little speech (maybe gave a little torah, mamush as shlomo would say )and said kaddish, The next group was singing "Amazing Grace" Then as I was leaving, people were leaving the candles and bouquets in a circle at the foot of a flagpole, and again singing patriotic songs, the anthems, waving flags, and I broke down. When jaded New Yorkers can't sing the anthem loud enough or wave a flag hard enough, the world is a different place. There are posters made at Kinko's with color photos of missing people on our lampposts. when I came home earlier there was one, now there are four. Our fire houses all lost people, two 8 each, one only 1, one wiped out totally except for one guy. There are bouquets and thank you notes outside the fire house. Some friends of mine went down to the fire house in Red Hook which had lost eight men to ask what they could do to help. And those firemen had not had any visiters, and they had no food so my friends went and got a big deli spread and cakes and came back and she said the firemen broke down and started crying and they all cried. In a way I am glad I am fully experiencing this. Love, Suzi September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.
