PLEASE PASS ON TO SHOW UNITY......
FRIDAY, September 14, 2001

Friday Night at 7:00 pm step out of your door, stop your car, or step out of your establishment and light a candle. We will show the world that Americans are strong and united together against terrorism.
Please pass this message on. The message:
WE STAND UNITED - WE WILL NOT TOLERATE TERRORISM!

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by this horrible tragedy.

Sincerely,

willow4262

I got this and was wondering if other people were getting this. Is this real? Shall we all do this?

[topane]

real enough. Why not?

1. Is that Eastern, Pacific, or each zone at 7pm?

2. Please do NOT light a candle if you are in a place with flamables (or "flamababulls" as Bush says)

[Markel]

The same message came to me, forwarded through someone in my company.

[pennypinch]

moi aussi.

yeah....use a flashlight

[Jihforce]

Yeah I got it too.
Damn, I'll be driving up to the bay area at that time. Damn.

[Jihforce]

It doesn't make much sense for PST people to light candles at 4pm in the afternoon...I think we should do it in our own time zones.

[brainsmile]

yeah

You just HAD to add that. How Rude.

[sbp]

Got a flyer from the neighbors about lighting candles tomorrow at 7:00 p.m.

[hapoo]

Hey!
If we all do it at 7pm in our own time zone it would look like a wave of light passing through America.
