00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:06.639
<v Speaker 1>It's Night's Eyes with Dan Ray on DEBS, Boston's new radio.

2
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:10.080
<v Speaker 2>We want to tell you what we know as we

3
00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:10.320
<v Speaker 2>know it.

4
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:12.679
<v Speaker 1>We just got a report and that there's been some

5
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:16.640
<v Speaker 1>sort of explosion at the World Trade Center in New

6
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:18.559
<v Speaker 1>York City Center.

7
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:21.480
<v Speaker 3>You can see the fireman assembled here, the police officers,

8
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:23.440
<v Speaker 3>FBI agency, and you can see.

9
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:24.760
<v Speaker 4>The two towers.

10
00:00:25.039 --> 00:00:27.960
<v Speaker 5>A huge explosion now raiding to pray on all of.

11
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:29.280
<v Speaker 6>Us got in the wag.

12
00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:34.399
<v Speaker 1>The actual incident, the actual impact is the site of

13
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:37.039
<v Speaker 1>this huge building in golf and.

14
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:40.280
<v Speaker 7>Plaine with this massive cavernous hole on the side of it.

15
00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:43.479
<v Speaker 8>And in one oh eight, we have a report of

16
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.359
<v Speaker 8>a plane crash somewhere in the area of the Pentagon.

17
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:47.399
<v Speaker 8>We're climbing it further.

18
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:49.719
<v Speaker 9>I need you to go over to one game in.

19
00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Details are slowly servicing. But what we know at this

20
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:56.920
<v Speaker 2>hour is that United Airlines Flight ninety three from Newark,

21
00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:00.439
<v Speaker 2>New Jersey to San Francisco, California, pressed here the good morning,

22
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:01.920
<v Speaker 2>killing everyone on board.

23
00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:05.640
<v Speaker 7>The far tower suddenly explodes and flame.

24
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:14.079
<v Speaker 10>Make no mistake, the United States will hunt down and

25
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:18.200
<v Speaker 10>punish those responsible for these cowardly acts.

26
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:26.359
<v Speaker 4>That was twenty three years ago. Today we're talking to people,

27
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:28.840
<v Speaker 4>and we will talk to folks in this hour. We

28
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.640
<v Speaker 4>will eventually get to last night's debate and your reaction

29
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:37.040
<v Speaker 4>to it. This was a longer sound. This was when

30
00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:40.560
<v Speaker 4>the President spoke to the country. This is cutting number sixty.

31
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:45.239
<v Speaker 4>So this is George Bush speaking to the country on

32
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.159
<v Speaker 4>September eleventh, two thousand and one. It would be about

33
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:52.079
<v Speaker 4>this time that night, twenty three years ago, and this

34
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:54.439
<v Speaker 4>was George Bush cutt number sixty up.

35
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:59.000
<v Speaker 3>Our financial institutions remain strong, and the American economy will

36
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:00.159
<v Speaker 3>be open for business.

37
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:01.959
<v Speaker 11>Well.

38
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:04.519
<v Speaker 3>The search is underway for those who are behind these

39
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.800
<v Speaker 3>evil acts. I've directed the full resources of our intelligence

40
00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:13.319
<v Speaker 3>and law enforcement communities to find those responsible and to

41
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:18.159
<v Speaker 3>bring them to justice. We will make no distinction between

42
00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 3>the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them.

43
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 3>I appreciate so very much the members of Congress who

44
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:29.800
<v Speaker 3>have joined me in strongly condemning these attacks and on

45
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:33.000
<v Speaker 3>behalf of the American people. I thank the many world

46
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 3>leaders who have called to offer their condolences and assistance.

47
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.719
<v Speaker 3>America and our friends and allies join with all those

48
00:02:41.759 --> 00:02:45.120
<v Speaker 3>who want peace and security in the world, and we

49
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:50.360
<v Speaker 3>stand together to win the war against terrorism. Tonight I

50
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:54.879
<v Speaker 3>ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for

51
00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:58.800
<v Speaker 3>the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose

52
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:01.120
<v Speaker 3>sense of safety and secure and he has been threatened.

53
00:03:03.639 --> 00:03:07.759
<v Speaker 4>So those of you who remember where you were that day,

54
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:10.080
<v Speaker 4>where you were that night, we invite you to call.

55
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:13.080
<v Speaker 4>My question is why can we not as a nation

56
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:19.680
<v Speaker 4>again have that same feeling of solidarity that we had

57
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:24.400
<v Speaker 4>that day and for a few weeks after, and then

58
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:31.639
<v Speaker 4>it all went away Seas Okay, we're gonna put Peggy

59
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:33.560
<v Speaker 4>and hold Rob. She wasn't ready, So we're gonna go

60
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 4>to Steve in Bridgewater, Steve next on Nightsack, right.

61
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:40.360
<v Speaker 7>Ahead, Yeah, Dan, I got a quick, unbelievable story to

62
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:44.759
<v Speaker 7>tell your relations to September eleventh, Go ahead. My parents

63
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.479
<v Speaker 7>used to go down to Florida every year. They had

64
00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:50.439
<v Speaker 7>this high lived in this high rise condo for the

65
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:53.000
<v Speaker 7>winter in Highland Beach, which is right next to her

66
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:56.319
<v Speaker 7>to Boca. So my father went to a barber in

67
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.280
<v Speaker 7>Boca Raton, right next door. Who do you think went

68
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 7>to that barber shop? Mohammed Ada. My father probably shat

69
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 7>in the same sheet as he did.

70
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 4>Did he ever meet him?

71
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:08.439
<v Speaker 12>No?

72
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.479
<v Speaker 7>He never met him, but the barber recognized him. The

73
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 7>barber recognized him, so he he was the same barbershop

74
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:19.800
<v Speaker 7>my father. You think of all the places he could

75
00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:21.959
<v Speaker 7>have gone, It wound up the same barber as my

76
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:23.399
<v Speaker 7>father in Boca Ratan.

77
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.839
<v Speaker 4>Well, I believe that these guys lived in the country

78
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 4>for for a while. Uh. Some lived in California, some

79
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 4>lived in Florida. It's it's too bad. Well, I'm not

80
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:38.439
<v Speaker 4>going to say what what I'm thinking, but I think

81
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:44.639
<v Speaker 4>you know what I'm thinking. Wow, amazing, just amazing. He

82
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:46.759
<v Speaker 4>was the ringleader, as I understand it.

83
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.759
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, but Dan, who could have known? Who would have known?

84
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.279
<v Speaker 7>Who would have had?

85
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:55.439
<v Speaker 4>I wish your father had had asked the barber. I

86
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:56.759
<v Speaker 4>bet he wasn't a big tipper.

87
00:04:58.480 --> 00:04:58.959
<v Speaker 13>I don't know.

88
00:04:59.160 --> 00:04:59.560
<v Speaker 7>I don't know.

89
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:00.720
<v Speaker 14>I don't I don't know.

90
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:03.759
<v Speaker 7>I have no idea. But who would know? He's just

91
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:05.839
<v Speaker 7>another person getting a haircut.

92
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:05.560
<v Speaker 14>You know.

93
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Well, that's the problem, that's what that's the problem

94
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:12.480
<v Speaker 4>with people. We're in an open country. We allow people

95
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 4>to committed this country. We're not a police state. I

96
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.439
<v Speaker 4>don't want us to become a police state, but we

97
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:20.879
<v Speaker 4>have people amongst us. We have found out not only

98
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 4>people who who were born here and grew up here

99
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.000
<v Speaker 4>who have done some terrible things. And then you also

100
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:30.360
<v Speaker 4>have people who come here looking Look look at Major

101
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.399
<v Speaker 4>Nadal Hassan. The guy that shot there was a member

102
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 4>of the US military. I killed individuals at a at

103
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 4>a military post. But about ten years ago, maybe a

104
00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:44.959
<v Speaker 4>little more twelve years ago in Texas. The people who

105
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:48.079
<v Speaker 4>we've welcomed into the country.

106
00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:49.759
<v Speaker 13>So see.

107
00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 7>And I can tell you another strange one that's unbelievable.

108
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 7>I used to live in Sharon with my parents house.

109
00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:01.040
<v Speaker 7>I moved out eight years ago and moved here Ridgewater. Okay,

110
00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:03.240
<v Speaker 7>who do you think lived down the street from us

111
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:07.120
<v Speaker 7>in Norwood that we never knew about a Nazi war criminal.

112
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:10.160
<v Speaker 7>As a matter of fact, it was in the news.

113
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:14.959
<v Speaker 7>It was in the news. You might remember. Yeah, the

114
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.160
<v Speaker 7>reporters were in front of the house and everything. Here's

115
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.759
<v Speaker 7>a man that did these horrific things. You killed so

116
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:23.360
<v Speaker 7>many Jews in uh Lithuania, and he lived two miles

117
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.000
<v Speaker 7>down the road from me. I went by out.

118
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:27.600
<v Speaker 4>It took a long time to find those guys. They

119
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:30.720
<v Speaker 4>they came here and we took them in. A lot

120
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.439
<v Speaker 4>of them went to places in South America, Steve. It's

121
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.639
<v Speaker 4>just what it shows is that I think we need

122
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:38.879
<v Speaker 4>to be we need to have tighter security when then

123
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 4>people come into this country, we need to know who

124
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:43.199
<v Speaker 4>they are and what their purpose is.

125
00:06:43.680 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 7>In my opinion, that's not happening now, Dan.

126
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.800
<v Speaker 4>That's there's no doubt about that. It's open border time

127
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:52.240
<v Speaker 4>in America. Steve. I love your calls, you know that.

138
00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:20.720
<v Speaker 5>street from the Brown Junior High School and we heard

139
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:23.160
<v Speaker 5>the kids playing in the playground and the yelling and everything,

140
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:25.759
<v Speaker 5>and then all of a sudden, everything just went silent,

141
00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.480
<v Speaker 5>and we didn't know what what happened. And we started

142
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 5>seeing the school buses coming back to the school, and

143
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.160
<v Speaker 5>the guy comes running out of the house telling us

144
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:37.319

00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.040
<v Speaker 5>to go to the store to get something, and he

<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's amazing how many times that something like that

155
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:07.720
<v Speaker 4>does happen. Someone gets into a bad car accident going

156
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 4>through an intersection. If they left the house twenty seconds

157
00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:13.279
<v Speaker 4>later or twenty seconds earlier, they would not have been

158
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:16.040
<v Speaker 4>there when the drunk driver rolls through the intersection.

159
00:08:17.160 --> 00:08:21.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, she was worried about and she called my cousin

160
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:24.920
<v Speaker 5>and she says, my husband just walked out of the building.

161
00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:27.399
<v Speaker 5>He says, he was going to the store down the

162
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:29.959
<v Speaker 5>street to buy something. Just as he was walking down

163
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:32.799
<v Speaker 5>the street, that happened. He was shocked. He could not

164
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:33.840
<v Speaker 5>believe what he saw.

165
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:36.159
<v Speaker 4>Is your cousin still alive today?

166
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:38.519
<v Speaker 5>No, he passed.

167
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 4>Pas Well, he had many more years than he would

168
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:46.960
<v Speaker 4>have had if he had been in that building. Because

169
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 4>that building came down and took a lot of people,

170
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:52.600
<v Speaker 4>a lot of people with it, Angelo, Great to hear

171
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 4>your voice. Always good to hear your voice. Thanks so

172
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:56.120
<v Speaker 4>much for checking out YEP.

173
00:08:57.159 --> 00:08:58.320
<v Speaker 7>One other thing I have to tell you.

174
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 5>I don't know if you remember. Do you remember? I

175
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.039
<v Speaker 5>think it happened one time that there was a car

176
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:05.480
<v Speaker 5>popped in there and somebody put a bomb or something

177
00:09:05.519 --> 00:09:09.039
<v Speaker 5>in it. Something like that happened one back.

178
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:13.919
<v Speaker 4>At night in nineteen In nineteen ninety three, terrorists tried

179
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.639
<v Speaker 4>to blow up the World Trade Center by parking a

180
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 4>car that had a bomb, and it did not take

181
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:23.120
<v Speaker 4>the building down in nineteen ninety three, but they were

182
00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:24.519
<v Speaker 4>intended down.

183
00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.399
<v Speaker 5>They succeeded in that same time that happened, he walked

184
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:32.440
<v Speaker 5>out of the building. Again. Well that's how lucky he was.

185
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:36.159
<v Speaker 4>Well maybe that's how lucky. Maybe he has a subconscious

186
00:09:36.159 --> 00:09:40.679
<v Speaker 4>sense of danger. I can't explain that one. That's more

187
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:43.519
<v Speaker 4>than a coincidence. Angela, Thank you much. We'll talk soon.

188

<v Speaker 8>Son, Yeah, thank you.

208
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 15>Yeah.

209
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 8>I was answering more to the question about the debate,

210
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:43.960
<v Speaker 8>but I'll definitely answer the question to where I was.

211
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:48.240
<v Speaker 8>I love to remember I was. I was actually just

212
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:52.279
<v Speaker 8>in a high school of science pass and we had

213
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:54.240
<v Speaker 8>heard the news on a TV that was rolled in

214
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:56.080
<v Speaker 8>the room. The teachers rolled the TV in the room

215
00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:58.279
<v Speaker 8>and we had all sat under our desk because we

216
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.559
<v Speaker 8>thought we heard planes over at that time, and we

217
00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:03.519
<v Speaker 8>thought like we didn't know what was going on, and

218
00:11:03.559 --> 00:11:06.600
<v Speaker 8>it was a scary moment. But I really wanted to

219
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:12.320
<v Speaker 8>chime in about the debate and mentioned that I don't

220
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:16.320
<v Speaker 8>know my opinion necessarily changed after hearing me to me,

221
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:20.519
<v Speaker 8>I do know that a lot of the general contendents

222
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:22.840
<v Speaker 8>that I've heard from people, and that my opinion that

223
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:29.559
<v Speaker 8>i've I am not necessarily a Trump fan, to put

224
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:33.240
<v Speaker 8>it lightly, but I will say that based on the

225
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:37.120
<v Speaker 8>current issues with the migrants and that situation that's going

226
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:40.519
<v Speaker 8>on with our own to trying to take care of

227
00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:43.639
<v Speaker 8>our own homeless population and our own veterans and our

228
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 8>own mentally ill and the migrants that are taking over

229
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:50.360
<v Speaker 8>our talents with the hotels, and we're having busting issues

230
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:53.879
<v Speaker 8>with students, And based on that reason alone, I know

231
00:11:54.080 --> 00:11:57.080
<v Speaker 8>many friends of mine are choosing to vote for Trump

232
00:11:57.480 --> 00:12:01.399
<v Speaker 8>and hope that that we we'll get about our solution

233
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 8>from him. And I will say that Trump is a

234
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:12.159
<v Speaker 8>vile creature and Turtle boy is guilty, and I hope

235
00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:15.039
<v Speaker 8>that he goes to jail, and Trump eventually goes to

236
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:17.039
<v Speaker 8>jail as well. Turtle boy is guilty.

237
00:12:17.080 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 4>Thank you, Dan, you got a lot in here tonight,

238
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:23.879
<v Speaker 4>ask for sure, Meredith, appreciate your call. Have a great night,

239
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:26.360
<v Speaker 4>all right, you had everything there. Let me go to

240
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:28.919
<v Speaker 4>Matt and Brighton. Matt, welcome back. How are you sure?

241
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:31.279
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Dan, how you doing?

242
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:34.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm doing great? Yeah.

243
00:12:34.799 --> 00:12:37.759
<v Speaker 2>Well I remember wanted to say two things. I remember

244
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:39.240
<v Speaker 2>how old?

245
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 4>How old were you in two thousand and one?

246
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 2>I was, it's called around eleven or.

247
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:47.039
<v Speaker 4>Twelve, Okay, fair enough.

248
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:52.840
<v Speaker 2>So I was sitting in the Rowsree School, Ju Day's school.

249
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:58.279
<v Speaker 2>I went to small classes and I remember parents coming

250
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:03.919
<v Speaker 2>to pick up their children. And my mother, she happened

251
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:06.799
<v Speaker 2>to work for the federal government here in Boston, so

252
00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:10.960
<v Speaker 2>the JFK buildings, so that was evacuated, and she came

253
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>and you know, got me and you know what you

254
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:17.120
<v Speaker 2>understand at that age, it is just minimal. But what

255
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:22.720
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to call and just say a strong testimonial

256
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.320
<v Speaker 2>to for who is a great man. I know the

257
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.600
<v Speaker 2>family and they're great people. And his name was Daniel Lewin.

258
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:36.240
<v Speaker 2>He was the first person who died in nine to eleven.

259
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:41.879
<v Speaker 2>He stabbed in the first class and he was trying

260
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:44.960
<v Speaker 2>to fight off Atta and some of the other attackers,

261
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.799
<v Speaker 2>which was confirmed at least through the FAA reports. He

262
00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:55.440
<v Speaker 2>immigrated from the US to Israel, was part of some

263
00:13:55.559 --> 00:14:01.919
<v Speaker 2>special forces there, worked very hard. Great family man, good person.

264
00:14:02.360 --> 00:14:06.039
<v Speaker 2>To develop the software company, and so he was on

265
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:06.879
<v Speaker 2>one of the planes.

266
00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:09.360
<v Speaker 4>So this gentleman was on one of the planes out

267
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:09.960
<v Speaker 4>of Boston.

268
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:14.480
<v Speaker 2>He was on the first flight out of Boston that

269
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:18.279
<v Speaker 2>went into the first tower. Yeah, and he was stabbed.

270
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:20.639
<v Speaker 2>He was the one. He was stabbed in the first

271
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:23.320
<v Speaker 2>class and they.

272
00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:27.600
<v Speaker 4>I think, correct me if I'm wrong, But they were

273
00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:30.159
<v Speaker 4>able to figure that out because one of the flight

274
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:33.799
<v Speaker 4>attendants actually was able to make a call and that's

275
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:36.159
<v Speaker 4>how they began to realize that some of these planes

276
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:38.120
<v Speaker 4>have been taken over. Is that correct.

277
00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:45.759
<v Speaker 2>On that one? Correct? And there's also some redacted information

278
00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:49.120
<v Speaker 2>that the FAA and the you know, commission reports did

279
00:14:49.799 --> 00:14:56.360
<v Speaker 2>that confirmed their finding overall that he was, you know,

280
00:14:56.799 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 2>stabbing attempt to stop them, but he was Flight eleven.

281
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:05.080
<v Speaker 4>Flight eleven Man. Flight eleven was the first plane to

282
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.120
<v Speaker 4>leave Logan Airport heading to Los Angeles. That was the

283
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:13.919
<v Speaker 4>first plane that smashed into the into the World Trade Center.

284
00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:19.120
<v Speaker 4>I think it went into I just hadsome milchair because

285
00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:21.320
<v Speaker 4>it can be a little confusing with the different flights,

286
00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:28.840
<v Speaker 4>but A eleven went into the North Tower. That crashed

287
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:31.960
<v Speaker 4>at about eight forty six am according to a time

288
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.679
<v Speaker 4>line that I have here. So your friend his name

289
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:36.399
<v Speaker 4>was mister Lewin.

290
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Well I know his you know, I mean they give

291
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:45.480
<v Speaker 2>respect to that family, but yes, his you know, he

292
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:50.759
<v Speaker 2>was a father and I knew you know some of

293
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.120
<v Speaker 2>the people that he would have been.

294
00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:59.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I've heard this story before.

295
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:03.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and he was a great man. He tried to

296
00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:09.159
<v Speaker 2>fight on that and defend the plane and he should

297
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:11.960
<v Speaker 2>be just as everybody should. Just want to say the

298
00:16:12.039 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 2>name daniel Lewin and make god you know, I'm so.

299
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:21.200
<v Speaker 4>Glad you called an invocus memory tonight. None of us

300
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:25.200
<v Speaker 4>can should ever forget what happened on nine to eleven, and.

301
00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:26.679
<v Speaker 14>We have to memory.

302
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:30.279
<v Speaker 4>He should not hold any biases against you know, people

303
00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:35.120
<v Speaker 4>you know from that community, who who who took these

304
00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:39.600
<v Speaker 4>planes down? But we can never forgive or forget what happened,

305
00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:41.799
<v Speaker 4>and we must have we must make sure that it

306
00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.840
<v Speaker 4>never happens again. Matt has always love you appreciate it.

307
00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Speaker 2>All right, daniel Leewin all that job bless Thank you,

308
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:48.840
<v Speaker 2>Jank too soon.

309
00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:50.720
<v Speaker 4>Let me get one more in here at least before

310
00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:53.240
<v Speaker 4>the break. Let me go to Chris and Bridgewater. Chris,

311
00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:57.240
<v Speaker 4>you're next on that side. We're recollecting and remembering where

312
00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:01.759
<v Speaker 4>we were on nine to eleven eleven, two thousand and one.

313
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:06.319
<v Speaker 4>Does that mean Chris, That is you Chris from Bridgewater? Right?

314
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:12.200
<v Speaker 14>Hey, I got two quick things right back then. I

315
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:14.920
<v Speaker 14>was in Texas and I was flying back to Boston

316
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:18.960
<v Speaker 14>on Monday morning, right And I went to a steakhouse

317
00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:23.319
<v Speaker 14>in Texas because they're really good down there, but I

318
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:25.559
<v Speaker 14>had takeout, so I was going back to my hotel.

319
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:28.880
<v Speaker 14>The lady gave me a steak knife and all I

320
00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:30.799
<v Speaker 14>had was a carry on bag. And the next morning,

321
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.920
<v Speaker 14>I put that steak knife in my carry on and

322
00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:39.319
<v Speaker 14>I got on the plane. That was Monday morning before

323
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:44.920
<v Speaker 14>Tuesday of nine to eleven one. That's happened.

324
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:49.920
<v Speaker 12>So what that shows is that the security was not

325
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:54.799
<v Speaker 12>what it should have been at any airports. And of

326
00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:57.559
<v Speaker 12>course things have tightened up substantially since then.

327
00:17:57.960 --> 00:17:59.920
<v Speaker 7>Oh it's a different world, does everybody?

328
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.440
<v Speaker 14>I said, yeah, So, so Tuesday. So I'm back in

329
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:08.079
<v Speaker 14>Boston Monday. I live in Dorchester and I live on

330
00:18:08.160 --> 00:18:12.400
<v Speaker 14>the third floor of a triple decker, and I have

331
00:18:12.480 --> 00:18:15.960
<v Speaker 14>a skylight above my kitchen facing like the Northwest. And

332
00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.359
<v Speaker 14>I was up and getting ready to go to work,

333
00:18:19.359 --> 00:18:22.079
<v Speaker 14>and I just look out my window like like we know,

334
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:24.799
<v Speaker 14>it was a beautiful day out and they were running

335
00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:27.480
<v Speaker 14>out of a runway that would carry all the planes

336
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:32.359
<v Speaker 14>right over my skylight in my kitchen, and I swear

337
00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:36.720
<v Speaker 14>to god, I saw twenty thirty planes within the within

338
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:40.319
<v Speaker 14>the hour take off in that same pattern. And I'm

339
00:18:40.519 --> 00:18:42.960
<v Speaker 14>for sure I've seen those two planes leave Logan.

340
00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:47.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I was looking at a schematic. Yeah, they both left.

341
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:49.400
<v Speaker 4>And you know, you can find there's there's a great

342
00:18:49.519 --> 00:18:55.480
<v Speaker 4>timeline that's that's available on you know, one flight, the

343
00:18:55.519 --> 00:19:00.240
<v Speaker 4>flight eleven, took off at seven fifty nine, just before

344
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:04.799
<v Speaker 4>eight o'clock, and the United Airlines Flight one seventy five,

345
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:09.720
<v Speaker 4>which crashed into the South tower, took off at eight fifteen.

346
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:14.559
<v Speaker 4>So if you were looking out at that time frame,

347
00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Speaker 4>they would have they would have you know, eight twenty

348
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:23.920
<v Speaker 4>eight thirty something like that. That's when they would have

349
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:26.119
<v Speaker 4>been flying by him. You got to give them time.

350
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:27.400
<v Speaker 11>For a long story longer.

351
00:19:27.799 --> 00:19:29.920
<v Speaker 14>I work in Cambridge, and I get on my bike

352
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:34.160
<v Speaker 14>to ride to my office and I just cruise down

353
00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:37.839
<v Speaker 14>mass Ave and I get to my office maybe eight

354
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 14>forty five, nine ish, and you know, there's only a

355
00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:44.960
<v Speaker 14>couple of people in the office at this time. And

356
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:48.599
<v Speaker 14>you know, I see some people bobbing their heads and

357
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:54.519
<v Speaker 14>their cubicles. Something's up. And then we go into the

358
00:19:54.599 --> 00:19:57.400
<v Speaker 14>media room and we row out a TV to turn

359
00:19:57.440 --> 00:20:00.480
<v Speaker 14>on the news, and it's ont on me. My brother

360
00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:04.079
<v Speaker 14>works in Merrill Lynch, and Merrill Lynch had the most

361
00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:09.079
<v Speaker 14>employees in one of those buildings and they had what else,

362
00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:12.319
<v Speaker 14>they had the most lease space in one of those towers.

363
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.160
<v Speaker 14>And you know, I don't even think about it, but

364
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:17.400
<v Speaker 14>I'm like, wait a minute, I better call my brother's

365
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:23.119
<v Speaker 14>wife and see what's up. And like in nineteen ninety three,

366
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:26.599
<v Speaker 14>two thousand and one, my brother didn't go to the

367
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:31.759
<v Speaker 14>office that day and he had a meeting off site,

368
00:20:32.039 --> 00:20:35.000
<v Speaker 14>and I actually spoke to him, but he, you know,

369
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:38.519
<v Speaker 14>every he lost a lot of Merrill Lynch colleagues there.

370
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:42.440
<v Speaker 4>It's just amazing. It's just amazing how fate works. And

371
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:46.640
<v Speaker 4>we talked with Angelo and his cousin was in the

372
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:49.559
<v Speaker 4>building and walked out just about the time the first

373
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:54.640
<v Speaker 4>plane hit the building. You just never know. Sometimes you're lucky,

374
00:20:54.720 --> 00:20:55.519
<v Speaker 4>sometimes you're not.

375
00:20:56.599 --> 00:20:58.960
<v Speaker 14>I had a friend work in the exchange building. He

376
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:02.440
<v Speaker 14>walked right by the build building when the second plane hit,

377
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:05.480
<v Speaker 14>and we were all nervous for this kid. He wouldn't

378
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.680
<v Speaker 14>pick up his phone for three four months. We knew nothing.

379
00:21:09.440 --> 00:21:12.359
<v Speaker 14>We knew he was alive, but he was all devastated too.

380
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I'm sure.

381
00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:16.799
<v Speaker 14>Ironically, I took my eighteen year old son to the

382
00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:21.359
<v Speaker 14>memorial a couple of weeks ago. So it all, it

383
00:21:21.400 --> 00:21:23.880
<v Speaker 14>all hits home when this day arrives.

384
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:28.680
<v Speaker 4>But I think it's important for us for it to

385
00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:30.839
<v Speaker 4>hit home and for us to remember we should never

386
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:33.400
<v Speaker 4>forget Chris. I met my news break at the bottom

387
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:35.559
<v Speaker 4>of the hour. Great call. I don't know if I've

388
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:38.440
<v Speaker 4>had you on before, but please continue to call this program. Okay,

389
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:41.240
<v Speaker 4>you were a great call. You told some very interesting stories.

390
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:41.759
<v Speaker 4>Thank you, sir.

391
00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:43.680
<v Speaker 7>Good talk, Dan see.

392
00:21:43.720 --> 00:21:46.000
<v Speaker 4>Good talking to you. Good night. Six one seven two

393
00:21:46.039 --> 00:21:48.480
<v Speaker 4>five four ten thirty. One line there, one line at

394
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.480
<v Speaker 4>six one seven nine three ten thirty. We will switch

395
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:57.000
<v Speaker 4>at eleven o'clock. Okay. If this sustains till eleven, fine

396
00:21:57.119 --> 00:21:58.680
<v Speaker 4>either way, we're going to switch, and we're going to

397
00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:03.799
<v Speaker 4>switch to the Trump the Trump Harris debate last night

398
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:08.039
<v Speaker 4>and what impact it might have had upon you. Whatever

399
00:22:08.119 --> 00:22:09.960
<v Speaker 4>you want to talk about, we will talk about that.

400
00:22:10.079 --> 00:22:13.440
<v Speaker 4>But I want to continue. I don't want this day

401
00:22:13.519 --> 00:22:16.839
<v Speaker 4>to pass. I don't want this day to pass without

402
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:20.720
<v Speaker 4>everyone who listen at the night side reflecting and remembering

403
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:24.640
<v Speaker 4>what it was like on September first, twenty and eleven.

404
00:22:24.839 --> 00:22:27.599
<v Speaker 4>I can conjure up those feelings. I can sense it,

405
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:30.279
<v Speaker 4>and I can believe I can almost put myself back

406
00:22:30.920 --> 00:22:35.039
<v Speaker 4>in that television news van sitting outside this courthouse in Dedham,

407
00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:39.000
<v Speaker 4>the school building in Dedham, where voters were walking in

408
00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:43.440
<v Speaker 4>to vote in that Tuesday primary, and hearing that, well,

409
00:22:43.519 --> 00:22:46.319
<v Speaker 4>a plane is crashed, a small plane, and then the

410
00:22:46.359 --> 00:22:49.799
<v Speaker 4>second plane. That point you knew what was going on.

411
00:22:50.279 --> 00:22:52.359
<v Speaker 4>And I think about the people shot the videotape of

412
00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:57.839
<v Speaker 4>these big planes, wowing what must have they thought? Back

413
00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:00.200
<v Speaker 4>on night's side, feel free to join the conversation, and

414
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:03.200
<v Speaker 4>we'll be back right after this night Side.

415
00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Dan Ray on w b Boston's news radio.

416
00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:11.079
<v Speaker 4>Back we go, Let's go to Rick and Bill Rick A. Rick,

417
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:15.599
<v Speaker 4>appreciate your call. Where were you on September dam Yes, sir,

418
00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:19.720
<v Speaker 4>where were you on that faithful day September eleventh, two

419
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 4>thousand and one.

420
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:27.119
<v Speaker 9>I was in Boston. I believe it's Boston. It's Brookline, Brookline,

421
00:23:27.160 --> 00:23:29.359
<v Speaker 9>and I was Boston across from Lands Down and next

422
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:29.759
<v Speaker 9>to Jersey.

423
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:33.599
<v Speaker 4>That's Boston, your next to Funway Park. Come on.

424
00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:37.319
<v Speaker 9>Absolutely, of the many bands that I've been in, this

425
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:40.400
<v Speaker 9>was the most special rock band. It was an original

426
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:44.880
<v Speaker 9>alternative rock band. And we're recording at a studio called

427
00:23:44.920 --> 00:23:49.119
<v Speaker 9>Willy Mammoth right where, right across from Lands Essentially it's

428
00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:54.720
<v Speaker 9>a parking lot now. But we had booked, we had

429
00:23:54.759 --> 00:23:57.920
<v Speaker 9>recorded the songs for a CD we had we had

430
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:01.559
<v Speaker 9>finished in two thousand and two. The first five songs

431
00:24:01.559 --> 00:24:05.119
<v Speaker 9>were recorded, and we had booked September tenth and eleventh

432
00:24:05.160 --> 00:24:08.720
<v Speaker 9>to mix them, and we did someone the tenth and

433
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:13.559
<v Speaker 9>I remember driving home peacefully right on September tenth and

434
00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:16.640
<v Speaker 9>and just a beautiful night. And I was by the

435
00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:21.319
<v Speaker 9>Museum of Science and went home. And I came the

436
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:28.599
<v Speaker 9>next day and and David, the producer, an engineer and

437
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:32.839
<v Speaker 9>everything said that my guitar player, Julie had called to

438
00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:36.839
<v Speaker 9>say that a planet hit hit the Trade Center, and

439
00:24:36.920 --> 00:24:39.519
<v Speaker 9>maybe both at that point. I think I came later,

440
00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:42.039
<v Speaker 9>more and more like after ten o'clock that morning, but

441
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:46.799
<v Speaker 9>and we were and Julie came in and we had

442
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:51.240
<v Speaker 9>booked the time, and so we were doing it, and

443
00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:53.359
<v Speaker 9>in fact, Julie might have been I can't as she

444
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:55.359
<v Speaker 9>might have been there. It was just me, Julian, Will

445
00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:59.240
<v Speaker 9>and David and we we were mixing the rest of

446
00:24:59.279 --> 00:25:03.160
<v Speaker 9>the of the five songs, and uh, David, as the producer,

447
00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:06.160
<v Speaker 9>actually said that he had I think his brother, I

448
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:08.119
<v Speaker 9>think it was his brother in law said his brother

449
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:10.160
<v Speaker 9>in law had a doctor's appointment that morning and he

450
00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:13.000
<v Speaker 9>was in the trade center that was where his office was,

451
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:16.880
<v Speaker 9>and he was very upset when he you know, his

452
00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:19.480
<v Speaker 9>brother in law was very upset, and David was and

453
00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:23.400
<v Speaker 9>so we we did the work and uh, it was

454
00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:23.759
<v Speaker 9>just a.

455
00:25:23.680 --> 00:25:28.640
<v Speaker 4>Weird The brother in law survived, right, Yeah, he did.

456
00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:32.160
<v Speaker 9>He did. He was. He was so upset and angry that,

457
00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:36.319
<v Speaker 9>you know, obviously we were. This day always depresses me,

458
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:40.039
<v Speaker 9>but but we got through the there. I remember walking

459
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:43.319
<v Speaker 9>outside I might have met went to McDonald's on Jersey Street.

460
00:25:43.519 --> 00:25:45.519
<v Speaker 9>I think it's gone now, but I think you know

461
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:49.640
<v Speaker 9>where it is, across from BC End, and yeah, and

462
00:25:49.839 --> 00:25:52.839
<v Speaker 9>it was it was a beautiful morning. We finished up

463
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.319
<v Speaker 9>the work and I think I recall having a couple

464
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:58.039
<v Speaker 9>of beers with Will and Julie back when we went

465
00:25:58.079 --> 00:26:04.119
<v Speaker 9>back to Rosalindale to Will's house. And then at nighttime

466
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:08.440
<v Speaker 9>I turned on Boston Radio and I started recording what

467
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:11.279
<v Speaker 9>Boston Radio was playing, and I have the tape somewhere

468
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:15.440
<v Speaker 9>and one thing, David Alan Bouchet. I recorded some of

469
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:20.000
<v Speaker 9>his and Magic one of six and some of the

470
00:26:20.039 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 9>songs that he played were very touching. And that's pretty

471
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:25.160
<v Speaker 9>much the day.

472
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:29.440
<v Speaker 4>So I just I would like to hope that we could,

473
00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:32.359
<v Speaker 4>at some point as a society, as a country, as

474
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:36.400
<v Speaker 4>a nation, come back and have that feeling and understand

475
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:38.920
<v Speaker 4>that there are ties that bind us. All of us.

476
00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:42.279
<v Speaker 4>Probably knew someone who was on one of those planes

477
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:44.799
<v Speaker 4>out of Boston. I mean, you're talking about, you know,

478
00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:47.759
<v Speaker 4>Boston's a big city, but you're still talking about two

479
00:26:47.759 --> 00:26:50.039
<v Speaker 4>big airplanes. What are the chances that you might know

480
00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:51.559
<v Speaker 4>someone on one of those planes?

481
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:54.599
<v Speaker 9>I did, I did, I did. I knew too. I

482
00:26:55.559 --> 00:26:59.680
<v Speaker 9>knew one of the pilot or co pilot's father quite well.

483
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:05.319
<v Speaker 9>McGinnis and and I and one of my teachers from

484
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:10.200
<v Speaker 9>high school was with his wife Mary. His name was

485
00:27:10.480 --> 00:27:11.400
<v Speaker 9>Jim Trentini.

486
00:27:12.000 --> 00:27:15.759
<v Speaker 4>And so I was a former Bruins hockey player Ace

487
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:19.279
<v Speaker 4>Bailey who played in the Bobby era with the Bruins.

488
00:27:19.720 --> 00:27:24.559
<v Speaker 4>He was on that plane. He and Mark Davis, who

489
00:27:24.599 --> 00:27:27.200
<v Speaker 4>had played at PU. They were members of the Los

490
00:27:27.240 --> 00:27:30.440
<v Speaker 4>Angeles Kings organization and they were they were heading out

491
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:34.240
<v Speaker 4>to begin the season. You know, they were scouts or

492
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:38.319
<v Speaker 4>front office personnel, and they never could have imagined what

493
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:40.279
<v Speaker 4>what fate awaited them that day.

494
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:44.200
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, and I was just gonna says as a final thought.

495
00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:48.640
<v Speaker 9>When we finished the CD, I asked Will and Julie,

496
00:27:48.680 --> 00:27:50.920
<v Speaker 9>I said, can I can I put I need to

497
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:53.960
<v Speaker 9>we need to thank everyone. I love thanking everyone. I

498
00:27:54.000 --> 00:27:56.160
<v Speaker 9>took pictures of the producers and made sure they went

499
00:27:56.200 --> 00:27:58.839
<v Speaker 9>in the CD. Also because everyone's a part of helping

500
00:27:58.880 --> 00:28:01.799
<v Speaker 9>out everyone. I think of pictures of them, you know,

501
00:28:02.000 --> 00:28:04.920
<v Speaker 9>nobody does that they did in the early days, but

502
00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:09.880
<v Speaker 9>of recording, and so I made sure I put Jim,

503
00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:14.519
<v Speaker 9>Jim and Mary Trentini on the CD h in memory

504
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:17.880
<v Speaker 9>of them, and uh and I felt good about that.

505
00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:21.079
<v Speaker 9>So so it's a very bittersweet thing. We finished the

506
00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:24.400
<v Speaker 9>CD and it came out well, and but but that

507
00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:26.960
<v Speaker 9>was a good memory. So I think of Julian Will

508
00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:29.079
<v Speaker 9>and I missed them quite a bit. I'll have to

509
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.039
<v Speaker 9>try to get in touch with them. But that's my rick.

510
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:36.480
<v Speaker 4>I appreciate you call, appreciate your reflections. Thank you very much, Joy,

511
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:37.440
<v Speaker 4>thank you, thank.

512
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:39.039
<v Speaker 9>You for tonight. Yeah, thank you so much.

513
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:41.079
<v Speaker 14>Bye Bye.

514
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:43.519
<v Speaker 4>Ron is in waymothrowing you next time nights. I get

515
00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:45.400
<v Speaker 4>you in here before the break, Ron, go right ahead.

516
00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:46.640
<v Speaker 12>Yeah.

517
00:28:46.839 --> 00:28:50.640
<v Speaker 13>I remember that day very clearly. There was a day

518
00:28:50.680 --> 00:28:52.799
<v Speaker 13>I wasn't supposed to go to work. I was in

519
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:56.200
<v Speaker 13>the security force for the O'Neill Federal Building and not station,

520
00:28:57.839 --> 00:28:59.880
<v Speaker 13>and uh so I was in my bathroom to have

521
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:02.440
<v Speaker 13>coffee looking out the window and the birds were flying.

522
00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:04.480
<v Speaker 13>I mean, it was a clear day, it was like

523
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:06.519
<v Speaker 13>But then I said, you know, this is kind of odd.

524
00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:08.960
<v Speaker 13>This is kind of quiet. There's no cars on the

525
00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:11.960
<v Speaker 13>street or nothing. All of a sudden the phone rings.

526
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:15.319
<v Speaker 13>Who is it the O'Neill Federal Building. They said, we

527
00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 13>got an emergency here. Have you heard? I said, no,

528
00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:19.880
<v Speaker 13>I don't. I put the TV on.

529
00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:20.599
<v Speaker 7>But before you.

530
00:29:20.559 --> 00:29:22.240
<v Speaker 13>Put it on, get ready and get in here. We

531
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:25.519
<v Speaker 13>were shot on help but we got skelton cool. This

532
00:29:25.599 --> 00:29:29.480
<v Speaker 13>is a national emergency. We're under attack, so they said,

533
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:32.039
<v Speaker 13>and please do not try to drive into Boston. You'll

534
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:34.920
<v Speaker 13>never get here, and we need you so I had

535
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:37.799
<v Speaker 13>to be driven to the to the MBTA and the

536
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:39.519
<v Speaker 13>Red line, and the Red Line I got on it.

537
00:29:39.640 --> 00:29:42.759
<v Speaker 13>I got as far as Wallaston, I started going backwards

538
00:29:42.799 --> 00:29:45.160
<v Speaker 13>on the same track. I said, WHOA, what's going on here?

539
00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:47.599
<v Speaker 13>There was not many people on the train, and they said,

540
00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:51.000
<v Speaker 13>we've been ordered to all trains out of Boston, out

541
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:54.440
<v Speaker 13>of the hub because they make the MBTA says they

542
00:29:54.519 --> 00:29:58.519
<v Speaker 13>may they may hit Boston. So they didn't know. So anyways,

543
00:29:58.559 --> 00:29:59.559
<v Speaker 13>a long stories.

544
00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:01.240
<v Speaker 4>How did you get How did you get to work?

545
00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:02.720
<v Speaker 4>If you couldn't drive in and.

546
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:05.920
<v Speaker 13>You had to take a train. They told me, only

547
00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:08.079
<v Speaker 13>take the train. If they give you any problem to train,

548
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:10.440
<v Speaker 13>haven't call you Neil Federal Build. They gave me a

549
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:12.599
<v Speaker 13>number that and they will. They will take you in

550
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:14.640
<v Speaker 13>because you need to get in. We need officers in.

551
00:30:15.119 --> 00:30:18.319
<v Speaker 4>So going on an MBT, you didn't go in with

552
00:30:18.359 --> 00:30:20.680
<v Speaker 4>the m BT A you you caught a regular like

553
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:22.799
<v Speaker 4>train into South Station or something.

554
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:24.680
<v Speaker 14>No, I know.

555
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:28.960
<v Speaker 13>They only even though after they let me go, they

556
00:30:29.079 --> 00:30:32.480
<v Speaker 13>reversed the train again, uh for me to go in

557
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:34.640
<v Speaker 13>and let me off a Park Street and they said

558
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:36.279
<v Speaker 13>this as far as we go, we're going back to

559
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:39.039
<v Speaker 13>We're going back to south. We have to get out.

560
00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:42.839
<v Speaker 13>So I went upstairs. I went upstairs and they had

561
00:30:42.839 --> 00:30:45.519
<v Speaker 13>these trolleys, you know, the Park Street, And I said,

562
00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:47.759
<v Speaker 13>see the door open. There's two other people in there

563
00:30:47.759 --> 00:30:50.000
<v Speaker 13>were sitting. I've got to sit there. It's not moving.

564
00:30:50.359 --> 00:30:52.079
<v Speaker 13>All of a sudden, the conductor comes over. He says,

565
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:54.440
<v Speaker 13>everybody off. I said, I just study here. I got

566
00:30:54.640 --> 00:30:56.880
<v Speaker 13>a surgeon. I got to get them. Not stay. He says,

567
00:30:56.920 --> 00:30:59.680
<v Speaker 13>we know all about the attack, but we're out of service.

568
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:02.680
<v Speaker 13>You better be smart, you better get I had my backpack.

569
00:31:02.759 --> 00:31:05.480
<v Speaker 13>Let me, he said, be to stop running. I had

570
00:31:05.480 --> 00:31:08.880
<v Speaker 13>to run all the way from UH from where I

571
00:31:08.920 --> 00:31:12.880
<v Speaker 13>got off UH and all the way all from the

572
00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 13>Park Street and run all the way to North Station.

573
00:31:16.240 --> 00:31:18.359
<v Speaker 13>And when I got there, it was crazy. It was crazy.

574
00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:22.079
<v Speaker 4>Well that's about a mile. So you did, you did

575
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:24.039
<v Speaker 4>pretty well. You got pretty close to it. I did.

576
00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:27.279
<v Speaker 13>I was. I was helping the puff and I was, okay.

577
00:31:28.440 --> 00:31:30.799
<v Speaker 13>It was it was I'll never forget that day. It

578
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.839
<v Speaker 13>started so peaceful and UH, it just I And then

579
00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:37.759
<v Speaker 13>the other thing, real quickly is that my my wife,

580
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:42.319
<v Speaker 13>UH was very concerned because after she found out UH

581
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:47.440
<v Speaker 13>our son was in school and in the n y U.

582
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:48.400
<v Speaker 14>But he wasn't.

583
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:50.519
<v Speaker 13>He didn't go to school yet. He was in his

584
00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.400
<v Speaker 13>apartment in Manhattan, and she was trying to reach him forever,

585
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:56.559
<v Speaker 13>and she was praying he would answer the phone. Answer

586
00:31:56.599 --> 00:31:58.839
<v Speaker 13>the phone. Finally he answered. He said, why are you

587
00:31:58.839 --> 00:32:01.039
<v Speaker 13>waking me up? He says. He says, it's good. I

588
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:04.359
<v Speaker 13>left my phone on last night. I forgot I crashed late,

589
00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:07.279
<v Speaker 13>he says. He said, we were under attack. He didn't

590
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:09.440
<v Speaker 13>even know where they were under attack, First Avenue in

591
00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:14.000
<v Speaker 13>New York, and he says, oh no, So it really

592
00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:17.359
<v Speaker 13>affected him more than us. And the power was going

593
00:32:17.400 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 13>in and out, the water was being shut off. It

594
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:21.160
<v Speaker 13>was crazy. It's crazy enough.

595
00:32:21.559 --> 00:32:25.279
<v Speaker 4>I've heard my story. Your cell phone service didn't exist, Ron.

596
00:32:25.359 --> 00:32:27.240
<v Speaker 4>I'm passing my break. I got to let you go.

597
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:30.599
<v Speaker 14>Thank you for letting me tell my story experience.

598
00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:33.039
<v Speaker 4>Thanks Ron, I appreciate so much. Talk to you. I

599
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:35.160

600
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:37.759
<v Speaker 4>I can get one more in here before the break.

601
00:32:37.799 --> 00:32:39.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to give it a shot. Jackie and Boston

602
00:32:39.880 --> 00:32:41.400
<v Speaker 4>Jackie next on Nightside, Go right.

603
00:32:41.319 --> 00:32:45.640
<v Speaker 6>Ahead, Hi, jan Jan, I was wondering if you ever

604
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:50.200
<v Speaker 6>heard this. I only heard it mentioned once and never again. Now.

605
00:32:50.279 --> 00:32:52.319
<v Speaker 6>I don't know if it was the morning of the

606
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:56.160
<v Speaker 6>attack or the Jab's war, but all those high jack

607
00:32:56.200 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 6>has showed up at the airport, I believe it was.

608
00:33:01.279 --> 00:33:03.759
<v Speaker 6>And the agents of the person who was, you know,

609
00:33:03.839 --> 00:33:07.839
<v Speaker 6>letting them go through, was very suspicious of them, all

610
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:12.920
<v Speaker 6>these Middle East men with no baggage in one way tickets,

611
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:16.599
<v Speaker 6>and he wanted to question them, but he was afraid

612
00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:20.119
<v Speaker 6>to get in trouble, so he didn't. Ended. Of course,

613
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:24.160
<v Speaker 6>what happened happened, and I never heard anything about this again.

614
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:28.680
<v Speaker 6>I wondered what happened to him. I would think, no,

615
00:33:28.759 --> 00:33:31.519
<v Speaker 6>when you let them through and then we were, you know,

616
00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:35.559
<v Speaker 6>attacked like that somebost because it's suicidal or something like that.

617
00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:39.599
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. I have not heard that story. I

618
00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:42.319
<v Speaker 4>do know that one of the things these guys were

619
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:47.359
<v Speaker 4>traveling pretty light. They were going from eventually Boston to

620
00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:51.319
<v Speaker 4>Los Angeles. Muhammadada State and at one of his colleagues

621
00:33:51.319 --> 00:33:55.599
<v Speaker 4>stayed in Portland, Maine. So they they flew into Boston.

622
00:33:55.680 --> 00:33:58.240
<v Speaker 4>They did not have to secure I have to clear

623
00:33:58.279 --> 00:34:02.359
<v Speaker 4>security in Boston because obviously once you got off at

624
00:34:02.400 --> 00:34:04.519
<v Speaker 4>a certain gate, you just walked. They just walked to

625
00:34:04.559 --> 00:34:06.559
<v Speaker 4>the gate where they were going to have to go.

626
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:10.280
<v Speaker 4>But I've never heard that story. But you know what,

627
00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:13.199
<v Speaker 4>it certainly would have been possible. And in those days

628
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:16.679
<v Speaker 4>of political correctness, maybe he was told to keep his

629
00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:19.519
<v Speaker 4>mouth shut and not say anything. You just never know.

630
00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:23.039
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, it happened, I believe, at the airport in Maine,

631
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:26.559
<v Speaker 6>and he was suspicious because there was so many of them.

632
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:30.199
<v Speaker 6>They were only traveling one way, they didn't have any baggage,

633
00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:32.280
<v Speaker 6>and he wanted to question them.

634
00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:35.719
<v Speaker 4>Well, in all, over nineteen hijackers, Okay, some of them

635
00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:39.760
<v Speaker 4>were in washed at Dallas Airport in Washington, some were

636
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:44.920
<v Speaker 4>in Newark, some had been here in Boston. So they

637
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:48.599
<v Speaker 4>were traveling in small numbers. It wasn't a pack of nineteen.

638
00:34:48.760 --> 00:34:52.280
<v Speaker 4>They had split it up pretty well. So even in

639
00:34:52.599 --> 00:34:55.760
<v Speaker 4>the two flights out of Boston, some groups say that

640
00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:58.800
<v Speaker 4>they were not inn on Social Field Road, and as

641
00:34:58.840 --> 00:35:01.880
<v Speaker 4>they say, Muhammad Ad and at least one other stayed

642
00:35:01.960 --> 00:35:04.239
<v Speaker 4>up in Maine. So I don't know, you know what,

643
00:35:04.360 --> 00:35:06.960
<v Speaker 4>it's possible, Jackie, that someone might have heard that story

644
00:35:07.000 --> 00:35:08.880
<v Speaker 4>and in the next few minutes they'll call him, they'll

645
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:11.079
<v Speaker 4>tell us that they had heard the same story.

646
00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:13.559
<v Speaker 13>Okay, I never heard anyone.

647
00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:18.280
<v Speaker 4>Again, a lot of times those stories maybe they're not true,

648
00:35:18.360 --> 00:35:20.559
<v Speaker 4>or maybe they're true, and someone in the government says,

649
00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:23.079
<v Speaker 4>you know what, let's just let's just bury that story,

650
00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:26.360
<v Speaker 4>because look after that, we heard the story from the

651
00:35:26.400 --> 00:35:29.480
<v Speaker 4>fellow who was down in Texas and who said that

652
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:33.639
<v Speaker 4>he was able to fly the day before and cleared

653
00:35:33.679 --> 00:35:36.800
<v Speaker 4>security even though we had a knife in his baggage.

654
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:39.519
<v Speaker 4>That's all changed as a result of nine to eleven,

655
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:43.000
<v Speaker 4>no doubt, No thanks Jackie, I appreciate you, Carl, thanks

656
00:35:43.039 --> 00:35:43.320
<v Speaker 4>so much.

657
00:35:43.400 --> 00:35:44.039
<v Speaker 14>Holding on.

658
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:48.800
<v Speaker 4>Good night. Okay, Sandy, Christine and Dan, I'm gonna get

659
00:35:48.840 --> 00:35:50.400
<v Speaker 4>you in and they'm gonna wrap it and we're gonna

00:35:50.440 --> 00:35:55.840

661
00:35:56.119 --> 00:35:59.960
<v Speaker 4>the big presidential debate last night. But as I said, Sandy,

662
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:04.239
<v Speaker 4>Christine and Dan will get your stories on nine to eleven,

663

<v Speaker 4>two thousand and one and what you recall back on

664
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:07.719
<v Speaker 4>night Side after this.

665
00:36:08.679 --> 00:36:11.599
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan ray Mine from the Window World

666
00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:14.880
<v Speaker 1>night Side Studios on w BZ News Radio.

667
00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:16.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm going to try to get everyone in. Let me

668
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:22.159
<v Speaker 4>start with Christine in debhim. Christine, do you remember September eleventh,

669
00:36:22.360 --> 00:36:23.280
<v Speaker 4>two thousand and.

670
00:36:23.199 --> 00:36:25.079
<v Speaker 5>One, I do.

671
00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:28.519
<v Speaker 16>I was at work, and I remember my father had

672
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:30.440
<v Speaker 16>to come get me because I was in need them

673
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:32.400
<v Speaker 16>and I was supposed to take the commuter rail home,

674
00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:35.599
<v Speaker 16>but they wouldn't. They wouldn't let even the commuter rails out,

675
00:36:36.159 --> 00:36:39.039
<v Speaker 16>so my father had to come get me. And I

676
00:36:39.079 --> 00:36:42.800
<v Speaker 16>remember that night too, so aery. After that, after it happened,

677
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:49.920
<v Speaker 16>all the the the the the military in the sky

678
00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:54.239
<v Speaker 16>all night long. The security in the sky was so airy.

679
00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:58.199
<v Speaker 16>I remember all that. I remember like the music like

680
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.159
<v Speaker 16>where were you in the world? Stop turn and just

681
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:04.760
<v Speaker 16>watching all the films, and it was so aery. It

682
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:06.400
<v Speaker 16>just really it was so scary.

683
00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:09.280
<v Speaker 4>It really was sure if we as a country, we'll

684
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:12.360
<v Speaker 4>ever feel the same way. We all were concerned. We

685
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:15.239
<v Speaker 4>all felt that we were under attack, whether we lived

686
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:18.159
<v Speaker 4>in New York or not, and we felt in danger,

687
00:37:18.440 --> 00:37:21.719
<v Speaker 4>and we and we all seemed to have one another's back.

688
00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:24.079
<v Speaker 4>But I think I'm not sure we'll ever have that

689
00:37:24.119 --> 00:37:24.840
<v Speaker 4>feeling again.

690
00:37:26.119 --> 00:37:29.320
<v Speaker 16>No, I you know, I think it helped everybody come together,

691
00:37:29.719 --> 00:37:32.760
<v Speaker 16>you know, as a country, all off the families, we

692
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:33.800
<v Speaker 16>all stay together.

693
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:37.239
<v Speaker 4>And I think, you know, and I think we all

694
00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:42.400
<v Speaker 4>understood that the time that we had that Tomorrow's never guaranteed.

695
00:37:42.599 --> 00:37:46.199
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's like we have today, but you wake

696
00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:49.079
<v Speaker 4>up tomorrow and you don't know what that day might

697
00:37:49.159 --> 00:37:53.440
<v Speaker 4>hold in store. And we've lost that sense, a sense

698
00:37:53.480 --> 00:37:56.199
<v Speaker 4>of community and sense of country. And I hope we

699
00:37:56.239 --> 00:37:58.039
<v Speaker 4>can get it back. Christine.

700
00:37:58.639 --> 00:38:02.519
<v Speaker 16>I hope so too. I know I knew two of

701
00:38:02.519 --> 00:38:07.679
<v Speaker 16>them were West Roshbury, was Jerry Dwatam up bays Alas

702
00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:08.159
<v Speaker 16>all lives.

703
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:14.039
<v Speaker 4>Oh God, I think everyone probably knew someone. Yeah, Christine,

704
00:38:14.159 --> 00:38:15.760
<v Speaker 4>thank you so much. I got a couple more. Going

705
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:17.440
<v Speaker 4>to try to sneak in here before.

706
00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Eleven as always, thank you so much.

707
00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:20.239
<v Speaker 16>Enough back from vacation.

708
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:25.599
<v Speaker 4>I'm back from vacation. Vacations in the review of Thanks Christine,

709
00:38:25.639 --> 00:38:29.159
<v Speaker 4>talk to you soon, all right, good night, good night

710
00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:30.840
<v Speaker 4>Dan and Brookline. Dan want to get you and at

711
00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:33.480
<v Speaker 4>least one more in Dan, go ahead, Hey Dan.

712
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:36.440
<v Speaker 11>So, I was living in New York City my wife,

713
00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:39.239
<v Speaker 11>who was my girlfriend at the time. We both worked downtown.

714
00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:41.079
<v Speaker 11>I worked a couple of blocks away from the Trade

715
00:38:41.079 --> 00:38:43.000
<v Speaker 11>Center and my wife worked on Wall Street, which is

716
00:38:43.199 --> 00:38:47.360
<v Speaker 11>a few blocks further away. We both worked really late

717
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:51.360
<v Speaker 11>the night before coincidentally, and we both decided that we

718
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:54.559
<v Speaker 11>weren't going to go to work early that morning on

719
00:38:54.679 --> 00:38:59.639
<v Speaker 11>September eleventh, and I decision, well, yeah, I watched it

720
00:38:59.800 --> 00:39:02.719
<v Speaker 11>all one told from my roof, and somebody who worked

721
00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:05.960
<v Speaker 11>for me was killed. And I am lucky that I

722
00:39:06.800 --> 00:39:09.519
<v Speaker 11>worked late the night before. But what I really wanted

723
00:39:09.559 --> 00:39:12.559
<v Speaker 11>to call about was, if you remember, the mayor put

724
00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:16.760
<v Speaker 11>out the request that people go to the funerals of

725
00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:21.239
<v Speaker 11>the firefighters. Three hundred and forty three firefighters died, and

726
00:39:21.400 --> 00:39:25.719
<v Speaker 11>I just randomly went to the funeral for Michael Carroll,

727
00:39:25.800 --> 00:39:28.719
<v Speaker 11>who was thirty nine years old. He had two kids,

728
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:31.559
<v Speaker 11>a daughter and a son, and he was on the

729
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:35.239
<v Speaker 11>forty fourth floor of the North Tower and he was

730
00:39:35.320 --> 00:39:38.840
<v Speaker 11>treating burn victims. Was the last anybody heard over the

731
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:42.800
<v Speaker 11>radio from him, and you know, he perished when those

732
00:39:42.840 --> 00:39:47.840
<v Speaker 11>buildings fell, and along with three hundred and forty two

733
00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:48.800
<v Speaker 11>other firefighters.

734
00:39:48.880 --> 00:39:52.519
<v Speaker 4>And that was the stuff what coverage those men and

735
00:39:52.599 --> 00:39:55.480
<v Speaker 4>women had as they climbed up those stairs. They had

736
00:39:55.559 --> 00:40:01.000
<v Speaker 4>to know that they were walking into a of circumstances

737
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:04.559
<v Speaker 4>from which they would not necessarily or.

738
00:40:04.599 --> 00:40:07.639
<v Speaker 11>Did they even think did they even think that far

739
00:40:07.760 --> 00:40:10.000
<v Speaker 11>about it? Because that was their job, and they did

740
00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:12.159
<v Speaker 11>their job, and they knew that their job is dangerous.

741
00:40:12.239 --> 00:40:15.480
<v Speaker 11>But you know, however, you however you want to say it,

742
00:40:15.639 --> 00:40:18.840
<v Speaker 11>it's it's amazing and we we should never forget them.

743
00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:22.599
<v Speaker 11>And and you know, just a quick thing is I

744
00:40:22.880 --> 00:40:26.559
<v Speaker 11>also with the soccer coach of the marathon bomber. So

745
00:40:26.679 --> 00:40:30.440
<v Speaker 11>I have this weird tie to two pretty big terrorist attacks.

746
00:40:30.559 --> 00:40:33.480
<v Speaker 11>And anybody who thinks that this stuff, you know, just

747
00:40:33.639 --> 00:40:38.599
<v Speaker 11>like isn't still a concern, you really got to think twice.

748
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:41.400
<v Speaker 11>We live in a dangerous world. We need leaders that

749
00:40:41.519 --> 00:40:44.599
<v Speaker 11>will prevent this stuff. And uh, it's real, you know,

750
00:40:44.760 --> 00:40:47.280

760
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:18.360
<v Speaker 4>New Hampshire. Sandy, I got a couple of names for you.

<v Speaker 13>Go right ahead, Okay.

762
00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:25.880
<v Speaker 15>I was in the Tyle River and Hampton called the

763
00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:28.239
<v Speaker 15>willows with my three year old though soon to be

764
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:30.119
<v Speaker 15>three year old, to walk in the marsh or the

765
00:41:30.880 --> 00:41:36.000
<v Speaker 15>salt Sindos. And when I came back up, my neighbors

766
00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:38.840
<v Speaker 15>asked if I heard about what happened in New York,

767
00:41:38.960 --> 00:41:41.440
<v Speaker 15>and I told to no. So I went up to

768
00:41:41.480 --> 00:41:43.960
<v Speaker 15>her living room and who were watching it on TV?

769
00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:49.199
<v Speaker 15>And we saw the second airplane hit live on TV.

770
00:41:49.599 --> 00:41:53.119
<v Speaker 15>Were like, is this the replay? But it was actually live? Yeah,

771
00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:56.840
<v Speaker 15>And my son was playing with toys and stuff. My

772
00:41:57.039 --> 00:42:00.320
<v Speaker 15>husband was in Sandy Hook, New Jersey if it was

773
00:42:00.360 --> 00:42:03.639
<v Speaker 15>a coast good on one of the lighthouses, and he

774
00:42:03.800 --> 00:42:07.400
<v Speaker 15>saw it all unfold. They wanted him to stay to

775
00:42:07.559 --> 00:42:11.679
<v Speaker 15>help because they made that area to makeshift more for the.

776
00:42:13.239 --> 00:42:13.519
<v Speaker 13>People.

777
00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:17.960
<v Speaker 15>And but but he had to come back because I'm

778
00:42:18.000 --> 00:42:21.280
<v Speaker 15>a nurse and he needed to watch our kids. Yeah,

779
00:42:22.559 --> 00:42:27.199
<v Speaker 15>but I didn't find out, oh what happened until he

780
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:29.239
<v Speaker 15>got back because I couldn't reach them. I didn't know

781
00:42:29.320 --> 00:42:32.719
<v Speaker 15>where he was where he stayed that night, and my

782
00:42:33.280 --> 00:42:38.039
<v Speaker 15>three year old later that day or the next day,

783
00:42:38.280 --> 00:42:40.880
<v Speaker 15>was playing with his blocks. They made two towers, one

784
00:42:41.519 --> 00:42:44.960
<v Speaker 15>one with one block lower than the other one, and

785
00:42:45.159 --> 00:42:49.000
<v Speaker 15>somebody knocked them down and he fell apart, crying and saying,

786
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:52.880
<v Speaker 15>don't knock down the towers. After that he never played

787
00:42:52.920 --> 00:42:53.800
<v Speaker 15>with his blocks again.

788
00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:58.480
<v Speaker 4>Wow. So it's amazing how much a young child Kenne

789
00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:04.880
<v Speaker 4>doorb even at that age, he intuitively knew what had happened, and.

790
00:43:05.480 --> 00:43:07.599
<v Speaker 13>He was maybe just be he understood.

791
00:43:08.679 --> 00:43:13.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, I'm flat up on time, so I gotta

792

<v Speaker 4>let you go. But if you haven't called.

793
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:22.119
<v Speaker 15>One thing that impressed me the most is the amount

794
00:43:22.159 --> 00:43:25.360
<v Speaker 15>of American flags that went out on every single overpass,

795
00:43:26.199 --> 00:43:27.559
<v Speaker 15>all the houses I drove by.

796
00:43:27.880 --> 00:43:28.719
<v Speaker 5>It was amazing.
