The day of OKC, I came out of a job interview, and then watched TV all afternoon.

When 9/11 happened, I knew the entire day was a loss for me as far as work was concerned, so I just got in my car and drove home. I made the kids watch a lot of the coverage. They have to know that evil people exist who want to kill them (and it wasn't just airplanes, like the NYTimes wants people to believe).

Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.
