We all remember where we were on September 11, 2001, and probably find it difficult to believe it was 20 years ago. Today’s panelists were in places we heard about on the news: New York, the Pentagon, and stranded on a plane outside the country. Today we’ll hear their compelling personal accounts of September 11, 2001. This forum was recorded before a live audience at the Boat House in Columbus, Ohio on September 8, 2021. The speakers are: Scott Light, Journalist and owner of Scott Light Consulting Shirley Brooks-Jones, Delta Flight 15 Passenger Special Guest Joe Comartin, Canada’s Consul General to Ohio  And our host, Jerry Revish, Retired Television News Anchor, WBNS-10TV
