I, too, was in college at the time. I remember being absolutely stunned. My roommates and I stayed up all night watching the news stations and marveling at how quickly the world could change. Like ML said, it was like 9/11 in reverse.

There's a section of the wall outside of the Imperial War Museum in London and it gave me a thrill, nearly twenty years after the event, just to see it. I tried to impress upon my son the historical importance of it, but he was only 11 at the time. Someday (I comfort myself), he'll look back on this picture and be glad for it.

Clark: Well, just to put your little mind at ease, Lois, you're right.
