[Ipg-smz] 9/11

Fellow Guilders,

It's a solemn day for many of us, as we remember the beginning of the 
madness we face even to this day.

We've probably told and retold the stories of where we were, and the 
crazinesses that followed. The colleagues gone. Travel disrupted. Lives 
disrupted. The buried across both the US, but especially the hundreds of 
thousands now buried across the Middle East.

My NYC friends bore the worst of the brunt, but not exclusively, and not 
for long.

Today, worldwide public transportation is forever changed, personal 
privacy, dignity, and scrutiny have been nearly washed away.

Ally now fights ally, entrenched in insane military spending, bombarding 
each other with tariffs, sanctions, and deeply divisive morass.

At home in the US, deep divisions in public opinion reveal concerted 
efforts to continue an internal gulf, rarely bridged, and full of 
vituperative epithet.

It's my hope that we'll learn the 9/11 lesson one day, when we look at 
the healed scar tissue.

Peace,

Tom
