watching cspan and the naming of the victims

i've never done this before and it's very moving. does anyone know the symbolism of the ringing of the bells? i was thinking it may have something to do with the timing of the attacks. maybe it's random, i do not know.

This morning at that time and holding moments of silence. Very moving. I was at Ohare that day.

i have a headache from it. now that i have begun, i feel i owe it to the victims and their loved ones to see it through to the end.

my daughter was killed less than 2 months previously. i still remember it was as if someone poured hot lead into my veins.
