- jlgreco 14y agoI think that the proximity to the horror likely has a strong effect. The survivors know that they are survivors, and know that they must carry on surviving. Distant observers thousands of miles away are left only with the horror but little of the resolve that comes from experiancing survival. But that is just me making up a hypothesis that fits the data in retrospect. Maybe something else is going on.

- dankohn1 14y agoI don't know if this is what he was referring to, but I find this article inspirational, about what the NYPD has been doing to fight terrorism, while we New Yorkers continue living our lives. http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2005/07/25/050725fa_fact2 http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2005/07/25/050725fa_fact2
