In what way did this change the world?
During the 1990s I was obsessed with skylines (and still am, to an extent), so I spent a lot of time collecting postcards of New York City and drawing the skyline on construction paper. I also remember trying to build New York City in Sim City 2000 and being ecstatic at the prospect of visiting the World Trade Center sometime during the mid 1990s. Had a chance to visit it in 2000, but didn't have the time
oh well, yeah. now the place is a barren wasteland. it's terrible. My brother's apartment in Brooklyn has a fantastic view of Lower Manhattan from the roof; it's the type of place where you blast all those cheerful late 1990s songs, sit back, and drink your favorite beer. but the experience is heavily.....subdued by the constant reminder of omission. Seriously Xahar, go to New York City, go to the top of any structure facing lower Manhattan, pop open some Blue Moon, and then tell me the experience is the same as it was in, say, 1996. And that, amigo, is how the world has changed. You can say it's all in our minds, but our minds are the only thing we have.
