9 years and 7 months ago

Where were you on 9/11? On a day like this, I can’t help but remembering where I was 9 years and 7 months ago.

I was in Lugano at work. All news web sites were down. I went in search of a TV together with my colleague Y. The TV in the pub downstairs wasn’t set to receive news. Later we found that the R and D engineers had hooked up a PC with a TV card to a projector. And many of us watched the news until late in the afternoon.

Following my timeline in Twitter this morning was great. The people I follow form a great world news channel.

    I was in SF. A friend in Germany called us up early in the morning and asked what the hell was going on in New York… we didn’t know what he was referring to until we switched the tv on.
