How will you remember 911? Today Thousands gathered Sunday morning at New York's Ground Zero, stood still in silence, some crying as they listened to the names of victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks were read aloud.
A moment of silence spread across New York City at 8:46 a.m. -- the time when American Airlines flight 11 crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Houses of worship tolled their bells.

"They were our neighbors, our friends, our wives, children and parents," said New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who, along with President Barack Obama, helped lead the commemoration on the 10Th anniversary of the attacks.
