Note from Half Hollow Hills

I grew up not far from Erica Sadun. Her post of this morning is worth
reading:

Today, all the cable channels will be replaying memories of that
time. And tomorrow, Apple is going to introduce some new iPods and
iMacs and life will go back to normal.

Life is short and unpredictable. We all have many missed opportunities
and people of value that we never got to really know. Rather than
focus on the obsessive hatred and corrosive philosophy that motivated
the events of 9/11/2001, today I’m going to take a moment to appreciate
and better get to know the people in my life.
