I remember this well. It was a Friday and I was in the eighth grade and coming out of gym class when I heard this. I think the only reason I would have heard it at that time was because one of the other eighth grade classes had a trip to somewhere in that area.

I remember it myself, I think I was in the 3rd grade, it was cold and snowing. No one could not watch tv cause the antenna on the trade center was knocked out.

It was snowing here in DC too. I think they even cancelled school here on that day.

I was in college, it was film class and there was a tremor that ran through the building - we had no idea what happened - but everyone was shook - when someone came in and told us what happened no one could beleive it.

Same thing. Almost. You started your senior year in 1989.
