Memorial near World Trade Center Site, October 7th, 2001.The World Trade Center has become known as "Ground Zero." Since a few days after the attacks, probably hundreds of people have visited the site every day.
The feeling of being there cannot be described. And it is so painfully similar to what I felt in Bogota when I visited the "ground zeroes" of terrorist bombs in the early 1990s. And to what I felt when I heard two explosions in 1993 in that same city, and saw the clouds of smoke breaking the sky.
