The city was weirdly quiet the day after and I still remember the drive to work, and wait for the kids who went from our place to be accounted for. But it brought out some of the best of people here and in Britain.
I know it's not been forgotten, but current politics and the gutter it's in, seems to have diminished some of the focus and remembrance. I do wonder if the event changed much at all, or if it just added to a current of hatred and paranoia now even more prominent.
