Dear National Geographic

I did not need to see the advertisement for your upcoming program on the 9/11 tragedy. I did not need to see tightly cut clips of the airplane just about to hit the tower. That was not cool.

No love.

I have a step-brother-in-law who is a writer for National Geographic. I'm considering telling him something about this, because he's a pretty good guy. Thoughts?

Sure. It had the trigger aspect to it. I was at work that day and we had the news on the TV; I saw the second plane hit. I'm not keen on having it jump out at me the way that commercial did. It had the same kind of "jump out of my skin" that Alien did on first watching.

bad enough living it and seeing the "have you seen this person" notices at the train station.
