What is 2,996?
From the link above:
Project 2,996 is a tribute to the victims of 9/11.
On September 11, 2006, more than 3,000 bloggers joined together to remember the victims of 9/11.
Each year we will honor them by remembering their lives, and not by remembering their murderers.
------------------------
With only 38 days left until September 11th......as of this posting, there are only 216 bloggers signed up to remember a victim of 9/11.........the list of 2009 participants is HERE
While I know so many of us said " Never Forget " immediately after September 11th....there are those who are now saying "Isn't it time to move on?"
Well, that choice is up to you........however, I Can tell you that I Meant it when I said "Never Forget"....and in 2006, when Dale Challenger Roe first came up with the idea of a 'blogburst' honoring and remembering the victims of 9/11,
I learned about 3 of those victims whom I now carry in my heart, and remember their families and friends in my prayers
Jonathan Neff Cappello
John Patrick Salamone
Gerard (Jerry) P. Moran
because I participated in Project 2,996,
and in 2007, I learned the names and a little about the lives of two more of the 9/11 victims
Yuguang Zheng and Shuyin Yang
because I again participated in Project 2,996
In 2008, I was privileged to learn a small bit about the life of another 9/11 victim
