This is a good forum because there are only a few of us regulars, but we are from so many different countries and backgrounds.  It\'s pretty cool.

yes you hit it on the dot. no-one\'s from iceland, samwise is form denmark, but there are a few american regulars, LIC,altered beast.

but the regulars here are some of the coolest people i have ever met in my life.

Thank you very much Falcon4... I got goosebumps (sp?) by reading your lines...

I realy love you my friends... we will win !

"A gigantic spread of flowers lies in front of Frankfurt\'s opera building in memory of those who were killed in the terror attacks. The colorful carpet shows the flags of the European nations surrounding the flag of the United States."

Thanks for the kind words guys. It\'s good to see that many of the forum regulars are as wise and nice as they are.

Just a little thought about countries and the like. I\'d like to think of myself as an Internation person - not as strictly a Dane, a European etc. I don\'t like those labels because in some cases they\'re helping hatred - it\'s so easy to catagorize someone as being something (anything) because they\'re American, European, Arab etc. I\'d much rather think of us all as just humans on this earth, without labels and boundaries - thus the tragedy in USA has affected me and many of my countrymen as much as everywhere else. I don\'t know anyone who\'s said "ha, they were asking for it" or something like that. Everyone has been very sad and deeply moved by these events and prayed for the lives of those involved. In such times I\'m glad to think of us all as humans, and not as someone vs. someone else.

Especially in these Internet times where we can talk to folks all the over the globe, thinking in terms of nationality is a bit off IMO - I can\'t \'feel\' if I\'m talking to a Swede, an American or someone in Australia - it\'s all the same. And thank God for that! If my little speech here has inspired others to think the same way (or perhaps you already do ) then I\'ll go to bed happy. Thanks for listening.

Yeah, one thing is for sure, having friends all over the world is a great thing.

The fact that these countries have compassion for us in our time of need is a GREAT comfort.

Thank you all for sharing with us.

Finland, like all other European countries I believe, had our flags half way up today. There was also a three minute silence at 1 pm. There was another moment of silence thursday at work places all over the country. People have brought flowers and candles to the embassy of USA. So yes, we all feel for you and share your grief.

aww man, the pics are gone ....but we still care

And it\'s true, it\'s pretty damn cool to be friends with a person who lives in another country, once I\'ve chatted with Potatocake a number of times and I belive I\'ve chatted with ##RaCeR## once or twice (I think, can you conform this Racer boy?), and the thought of talking to someone that lives on the other side of the globe is overwhelming to say the least.

England did stuff too.

Silences and the American national anthem played in London by request of the Queen.

It seems everyone has pulled together on this.

Even our democratic parties have with the conservatives saying they will stand by the prime minister (of the other party) in their decesision to stand by America.

Lot of upset people over what happened over there.

Lots of pics on our UK news channels.

Spain has also contributed with silence minutes and other acts. The full world is with USA.

it was soo cool, I saw a memorial in britan with a huge group of british choir boys singing the national anthem.

the church was packed.

and yes. i find that the regulars here are the mos tinteresting people i have ever met. (like stated earlier in one of my above posts)

and i only wish that the chat room would have more people (like regulars coming to it)

cuz i would love to chat with the regulars. (although i already have with many, but not for long... and it was awhile ago...)


thanks posters from europe, australia (bob\'s hardware, ooseven), and some from canada for your support. i think that together we have the power to take terrorism down.

edit, oh yes, we cant forget the spainards in here (adan, psxxx you know who you are.)

I feel that this attack has brought out the best of Americans.
