I, too, have a twinge when I see or write this date, or have to schedule something mundane on it.
Because the event has become known by its date, I think - for the people alive on 9.11.01 - this will become more of a touchstone than other such mass-consciousness events.
I remember when JFK was assassinated, and I daresay everyone alive that day remembers what that day was like. But I don't particularly remember it happened on November 22nd. (is that even right?).
We'll never forget September 11th. And because it's called "September 11th," we'll never forget to never forget it.
