[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was Pre-9/11 before all the security at the airports and you could literally arrive at the airport and basically walk straight to your plane and board--my husband (a consultant) used to cut it as close as possible. You can't imagine what a change it was to the country post-9/11. Threat levels and the loss of innocence. And the anthrax scare on the heals of 9/11 in 2001. We also had just 'partied like it's 1999' and made it through Y2K unscathed. Everything felt safe. No pandemics and mass shootings/school shootings were rare and not a daily occurrence like now. [/quote] Wasn't the DC shooter shooting and killing random people from the trunk of his car? [/quote] That was 2002.[/quote] It was also in the fall, not summer. My kids were in elementary school and couldn't go outside to the playground for several weeks. [/quote]
