1. How often are you reminded of the events of September 11, 2001?
Not often now, unless I hear/read it referenced in a speech or something.
2. In what ways has your own life changed as a result of the events of September 11, 2001?
It marked the beginning of my political awakening.
3. Did the world become more dangerous that day, or did we just become aware of the danger?
I think the US became more aware of it.
4. What is your attitude toward safety and caution in these post-9/11 days?
Personally, I feel no safer now than I did on this day five years ago. So I suppose it’s no different from how it was then. Don’t be too careful, but also don’t be careless, if that makes sense.
5. Is September 11, 2001 a bigger deal now, five years later, or is it less of a big deal?
Probably less. I think it was a bigger deal back in 2002.
