Five years ago today I discovered that my colleagues were sitting around the television in the media-room at work.
There was something amiss in New York.
When I asked what was happening they told me about some terrorist attacks.
My first reaction was "Yes, I just finished reading the book!" (John Grisham - The Brethren) Then I realised, that they were serious.

Sitting there watching the news and reflecting on the presidential elections of 2000, I couldn't help but draw further parallels to the novel.
Then, when the towers collapsed, I remarked, that it looked more like a well-planned demolition, than an attack.

Recently there was a documentary on German Television 'Loose Change' putting forward a conspiracy theory that is too close to Grisham's novel for comfort.
I hope, for the sake of America and for the sake of all those who tragically lost their lives five years ago, that the theory - however plausible it seems - is wrong!
