Re: Where Were You...?

I was sitting in my office at CBN in Virginia Beach, Va. Then, I was Features Manager for ?The 700 Club? and had just finished watching some testimonies scheduled to air in the next few weeks. I switched my TV monitor to CNN (sadly, it was the only choice) to watch the whole thing in real-time.

As an amateur rocketman and long-time NASA aficionado, I knew instantly that the situation was so anomalous (geek-speak for ?really-gone-bad?), that the crew was certainly lost.

Fixed on the screen, I prayed for a ?Star Wars? happy-ending as I watched the debris descend. It was a heart-rending moment only topped nearly 15 years later by the events of September 11th.
