: Yes, I'm very sorry, but ppl have TV, newspaper and
: internet to understand what happened, so noone need
: news from Archer company here if they have TV,
: newspaper or internet.

Actually, that first post I made was just to be an initial announcement (and if I hadn't posted it, someone else would have). I was going to write a follow-up post to it expressing my opinions and emmense sadness to follow the statistics of the event (just as one would define terms before debating them). However, I was drawn into a debate about I having the right to do so, and was therefore diverted in my initial task.

: Yes, I know what happened.

I don't think you did, beyond the statistics.

: Ok, now DO U KNOW HOW MANY PPL DIES EVERY DAY IN POOR
: COUNTRIES!!!

No, how many?

: They have nothing to eat!!!

And which nation every year sends millions of dollars to those people so that they might live?

: Wow, nah for
: Archer it doesn't matter, he live in USA he have no
: problems,

Perhaps you'll note that there are many American problems, both internal and external, as was mentioned earlier.
This is not just something minor either. No American city has been attacked by foreigners on ANY level like this in the history of the country. It's not an isolated insident. It could mean the liquidation and destruction of countless countries, if the most extreme wing of the possibilites unfolds (ww3).

: he play myth, discuss every day where
: mythworld was or is. GREAT, it's just great.

How much have you helped those people you mentioned or expressed sorrow for them so publically?

: Than, tomorrow I found u in b.net, and the first that u
: said me was that it's terrible because u never saw
: Twins Towers, and HE NEVER CLIMB IT.

You heard the last phrase a ten minute conversation I was having with some of my friends. One of them mentioned how totally strange it was for them to have climbed to the top of the towers, only to see them crumble before them. I expressed similar empathy, but I said that I regretted myself not climbing them. I probably could have, given the initiative, in the past, expecting they'd always be there. I was about to go into how it was only poignant for them to no longer be there, a good analogy how we must act when we should and do things when the time is right, not let an oportunity, a good day, a potential job, pass by without jumping at the chance. This was going to be an expression of a personal philosophy of life. You interrupted me, however, sending private message after private message.
How very informed of you to base an argument off something you didn't even know about.

: There died
: hundreds ppl and poor Archer DIDN'T CLIMB TOWERS. WOW,
: great.

I can't believe you're actually so stupid as to form an opinion off something where you weren't even being addressed, however. I can only suspect you're doing this because you don't like me, a well-known fact, or for some ulterior motive of which we are not yet aware.

: Little respect???? Be a human??? Only one great tragedy
: happened in USA, and for all it must be terrible.

Only a nuclear bomb destroying the city could have been worse. That's how severe the situation is.

: And
: now tell me HOW MANY GREAT TRAGEDIES HAPPENED IN THE
: WORLD,

Not many lately. The modern world is very different from the old and ancient one of the distant past.

: how many childrens die every day, because thay
: have nothing to eat!!! Nah, for USA ppl it doesn't
: matter,

You're terribly misinformed. We help more people in the world than anyone else, and do it willingly. This doesn't mean we are saints—certainly not—but it does show we have compassion and humanity, of which other more immuture nations do not.

: Archer don't post it here, because he thinks
: that this forum is for mythstory discuscion.

I never posted it because it's an utterly depressing and hopeless topic. It never occured to me to talk about such a thing, though I certainly wouldn't use "that's not Myth!" as the basis for an argument to not have it posted here—certainly not.
And you are one to talk, posting about your conquests over Twice Born with no damage. I have no doubt in my mind you're skilled at the game, and I think you're probably a good player too. I don't care either way though about your posts. They don't bother anyone, and they're sometimes interesting to read about. When is it I attacked you over posts you made about going off-Myth-topic?

: So, for
: USA ppl doesn't matter this ppl only Americans, it
: doesn't matter if they die or not, only Americans MUST
: LIVE.

For the longest time, we thought we were safe in America, two oceans seperating us from any potential enemy, the most powerful military and econmy in the world, the most influential culture on the planet. We would never think that our borders could be so violated.

As one mentioned, if it can happen to America, it can happen anywhere.
