I didn't say WWII. -- nm - Ender Sep 11, 06:47 10
- so amend my post to 37 million from WWI *shrug*. completely, completely different things from 9/11 -- nm - zork Sep 11, 06:50 9
  - And yet many more living Americans were affected by 9/11 than by WWI. -- nm - Ender Sep 11, 06:51 8
    - excuse me? 117,465 deaths (0.13% of the population) and 205,690 wounded of a population of 92 million. -- nm - zork Sep 11, 06:56 7
      - Seriously? You're going to argue this? How many Americans living today personally remember WWI? How many personally remember 9/11? -- nm - Ender Sep 11, 06:58 2
        
        in both cases, 100% of the population was affected but there was a much higher loss during WWI. it affected people's daily lives at least as much -- nm - zork Sep 11, 07:00 1
        
        You're so pretty. -- nm - Ender Sep 11, 07:01

        i'm not worried how many *living* americans were affected. how many are still alive in 1776? you don't stop celebrating something after everyone dies. -- nm - zork Sep 11, 07:04 2
        
        i guess this should go under Ender's post -- nm - zork Sep 11, 07:05 1
        
        Either/or really. -- nm - Ender Sep 11, 07:06
