Any thoughts on this?<P>TERRORISM PROMPTS<BR>DIVORCE RETHINKING<BR>While thousands of homes have been shattered by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, others are being brought back together by the loss experienced by so many families. Hundreds of couples have decided not to go through with divorce and try to patch things up instead, according to "The Houston Chronicle."<P>In the last two weeks around 400 family-law suits have been dismissed in Harris County Family Law courts, more than three times the usual number, said the newspaper. The tragedy "puts it all in perspective," said lawyer Annette Henry. "Whatever was driving you crazy no longer seems so significant."<BR>

I witnessed the WTC attack from my 30th floor office a safe distance away.....this 24 hours after my divorce was final. Yes, it made everything else, problems, etc...seem so insignificant. For an instant I imagined one tower was me and the other was my wayward exwife....bin laden was the dirt ball my ex is now with.....
