Anniversary

On Sunday, it will be ten years since Sept 11.

I've been reading some stuff on the Internet, about people who were there, or were involved, ten years on and what they're doing now. One of them was the photographer of the Falling Man and one was the woman who was photographed covered in yellow ash from the falling towers.

They were on the Australian Yahoo website. You can post comments underneath the stories. And, as you might imagine but not condone, people were making stupid jokes out of the whole thing. I was going to post a few in this blog but I decided against it. Why give morons more publicity? Of any kind?

Is it really 9/11 fatigue? Is it something we should all just ignore now? We can make stupid jokes about it and no one will care?

Is it only over here that this is happening? I really hope so. But it still makes me ashamed to be an Australian.
