1. The number of children who lost a parent in the events of 9/11 was 3,051. Seventeen babies were subsequently born to women whose husbands died during the attacks. Nine months after 9/11, the number of births in New York City rose by 20 per cent compared to the same month in 2000.
2. One of the unsung heroes of 9/11 was a guide dog, Roselle, a yellow Labrador who led her blind owner, Michael Hingson, down 78 storeys of the North Tower and to the home of a friend.
3. Though both the police and fire departments of New York City had their own emergency response procedures, the two departments did not have a coordinated response plan to a major incident.
4. A Muslim prayer room was destroyed when the World Trade Center collapsed, along with a store of Korans.
5. Five of the 9/11 hijackers stayed in a motel right outside the gates of the American spy organisation, the National Security Agency, in the days immediately before the attacks.
6. Scientists took advantage of the three-day flight ban over the US to conduct experiments on the effect on the atmosphere of jet planes. They found the days were a little warmer and the nights cooler, suggesting that the exhaust trails planes leave in the sky act like clouds; shielding the Earth from the sun during the day and trapping heat during the night.

I still see him crying,
I still see him struggling,
