I remember we were finishing up some cisco labs in the hotel classroom when one of our classmates who had gone back to his room for a study break called up to the room. He spoke with our instructor for a brief moment, hung up the phone and told us that a plane had just crashed into the world trade center in NYC. We all looked up for a second and imagened a small 1-2 seater cessna bumping into the colossal building, then went back to work. After a few more minutes of study we decided to hit the restaurant for dinner. Before our food could get to our table Wallace ran in huffing, puffing not able to speak in full sentences. We ran to his room with door open and the FOX news channel breaking news graphic scolling across the screen. A few seconds after our eyes focused on the television the second plane came into view and slammed into the second WTC tower. We sat stairing at the TV set in disbelief as the first tower fell, then the second. Thinking back it still seems surreal, spending Sept. 11 2001 in India with Wallace, Roland, Robert, Ahmed, and Ashish.
