He was drawn in June of 2003. His drawing is counting ten people.0:52Andrew Drew. I watched my watching of Andrew Drew, a small group of people who took turns0:58sharing their opinions. Long after the drawing was done and documented, I continued to talk to people.1:05Everyone had a story and opinion about that day in early September, but one in particular stood1:11out from all the others. I finally met a woman who was strongly of the opinion that the U.S.1:16government played a direct role in the attacks. She went so far as to explain that the attacks1:21were coordinated by the government. I was fascinated. In cyberspace, you can easily1:26find a collection of different theories. One of the most remarkable sites is one dedicated to the1:32theory that the World Trade Center was rigged with explosives and that the plane's collision1:36was a distraction from the premeditated demolition of these buildings. The site is filled with slow1:42slow motion video, and scientific analysis to prove their point.1:46A lot of incredible, complex, and remarkable things happen all the time,1:50and I enjoy listening to different views on the matter,1:53but all theories aside, we are navigating a path through Manhattan based on hard fact.1:59And the hard fact is that Jonathan Hohmann died on September 11th,2:03and today we took a moment to remember him.2:07Jonathan R. Homan knew there were risks as a firefighter,2:12He also had faith that if anything were to happen to him, he would be with God.2:16When he wasn't working, he spent time with his sons, bowling with Matthew, or watching2:21eleven-year-old Gregory play basketball.← Location 307Heart Three · Location 308Location 309 →
