A big Thank You to the rest of the world

There has been a lot of discussion in here the last several days regarding the editorial written in a Canadian newspaper. This has prompted a lot of Americans calling themselves the thankless saviors of the world (myself included), and a lot of other folks in our global community here with injured pride.

That being said, I was truly touched by all of the gestures made by countries around the world yesterday. The moments of silence, prayers, etc have been truly appreciated. It's an amazing thing seeing the national anthem being played in cities around the world.

Thank You.

The world is truly uniting in ways unthought of a week ago.

Yes!!! I think this will cheer everyone up: http://spot.eroded.org/thankyou/

Please, let's not fight in this tightly knit community - it's so rare to find such havens. I hope that no person has been injured beyond hope by some of the acid remarks that have flown around in light of the current events...

Peace to everyone!
