I saw and heard it on my television. It was very moving. Especially when I saw the the genuine emotion and pain that I saw on the faces of the people who were there to watch.

My thanks to the Queen, and to all of the people all over the world who are showing so much empathy and compassion to those of us here.

I understand that significant numbers of citizens of countries other than the US were lost or are missing. I heard that the number for Britian alone may be as high as five hundred. So I send my sincere condolences to anyone, anywhere in the world, who lost a loved one or friend as a result of the events on Tuesday.
