The Road From 9/11Working in Boston that morning, Lawrence Walsh remembers the morning of Sept. 11, 2001: "It wasn't until I was clear of the concrete awning that I learned of the horrible events unraveling in New York -- from the Howard Stern radio show... A day would pass before I learned that the terrorists who hijacked the two flights out of Boston stayed at the very hotel in which I met with Symantec." Also, five years ago, VARBusiness publisher Bob DeMarzo posted this column on the afternoon of the attack. "I was trying to contact a friend who worked in the World Financial Center that is adjacent to the Trade Center. He had witnessed the plane striking one of the towers while the other burned. He was evacuated and was on the run." Posted by Joe Caponi at 11:10 AM, September 11, 2006 This is a public forum.
