2750 people died in New York City that day. Each of them was someone's brother or sister, lover, mom or dad, neighbor, and friend. They died most likely not fully comprehending the terrifying complexity and evil of the situation they had been forced into. They died hoping that our lives would turn out better than theirs. This pillar of doom, speaking about the upside down times we live in, is one of the few relatively intact steel beams left standing after the WTC collapse.
