I mean, from what I'm reading people thought she was claiming she was ushering other people out of a building? Not what I took away from her original post but maybe there were other posts where she made bigger claims.

We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men. Edward R. Murrow
A lot of buildings were evacuated on 9/11, that's not the far fetched part. The far fetched part is someone simply asked her how old she was on 9/11 (implying she was too young to remember or know what was happening on 9/11) and not only was she old enough to remember 9/11, but she was one of the .3% of the US population that is inside of DC during the workweek on 9/11 when a plane flew into the pentagon and she was in a building that had to be evacuated at the time.
Sure it's possible, a lot of people were in DC at the time. A lot of people are in the 1% of income earners, a lot of people teach logic, a lot of people have an illegal alien brother, a lot of people date a wealthy lawyer who hits the gym 3+ times a week. It just seems a little strange that whatever the topic she somehow has personal experience in the subject that makes her an expert in the field.
I think it was me asking what she knew about it. I had about a 9 year stint where anti-terrorism was kinda my thing. I had a buddy that was in the Pentagon during 9/11 too. BTW, the Pentagon isn't in Washington, D.C.
I believe she said she was evacuating a building, like she was the one in charge of getting people out.

Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam
On 9/11 I was working in the DC area. Unless you like hearing about a building evacuation, a massive traffic jam, and a lot of phone calls telling friends and family I was OK, I have no real stories to tell.
Where were you? I was on K Street and was living in Bethesda.
The thing I remember most vividly were all of the radio reports of car bombs as a co-worker VERY kindly drove me home. It turns out there were no car bombs. But the entire (long) drive back was unnerving to say the least.
A point I made myself several times. MILLIONS of people were living in DC and NYC during 9/11. It's not like it happened in Podunk, IA.
Also LOL at you idiots sitting around still talking about whether or not you believe me.
I guess it's easier than talking about politics. After all, no one is going to prove you wrong if you speculate on another poster's life.
