I refer you to my vapid comments of the Australian morning of September 11 2001, followed by the startled comments of the evening, at http://theducks.livejournal.com/2001/09/11/

I remember going into the lounge room to interrupt my mother watching The Bill and saying "Mum, you really have to see this!" "Can it wait" *changed channel* "Ohhhh..". Mum and I having visited there in 1999.

So young readers of my interblags, what were you doing back then? I know at least one of you was in primary school, which scares me somewhat.

Duck out.

And for the record, I did buy another Intel PRO/100, but threw it out (well, gave it to [livejournal.com profile] lathiat) the next year, when I got ADSL.

I was on IRC, talking to someone in the Eastern States and they had it on the TV before we did... so I was hanging out in front of the TV until the coverage came on.

I was also working at the West at the time so I went in really early the next day, we were so busy
