This is my second attempt to submit a comment for this article. Unfortunately I lost the first one so this will be the shorter version.

I remember some of the events you have listed above and the magnitude of shock they caused though out the world. This article is powerfully written and presented in such a manner that the feeling of tragedy and catastrophe are relived by merely reading it. A very sobering piece of work.

Great job, Lauren!

I just sent a comment but it didn’t show up.Triond problem?
I’m still very new at this.These were sad things for sure,As a child I watched Vietnam on TV with Walter Cronkite every day after school,didn’t know it was real.I cried on 9/11.Turned on the TV right before 2nd plane hit,had no idea it was for real,then I thought we’d finally done it,thought it was the beginning of WWIII.Wanted to tell you to go to my Triond site and read “Proud to be an American’ think you will like ie

Well done article. All you have to do is mention Challenger and 911, and I can still remember the time and place of where I was when it occurred. It’s amazing how after all these years, such events can still strike a cord. My father fought 2 tours in Vietnam, and although I can’t even understand what took place there, his pain still moves me. At times one has to wonder why such events occur; whether they’re a testament to the human will, or that tragedy makes us fallible. I still shudder when I think of the human suffering of the Holocaust. Powerful article.

Sad facts of recently history .Wouldn´t be a warning of a more serious coming fact? If we think of materialism in the world, that bounces in crime, family breakdown, drug addiction, etc..
