I'd have to say that, if you choose to incoproate the attacks into your Shadowrun history, it would be remembered but there would be so many "fresher" events that much of the sting would be gone.

Goblinization, VITAS, the war with the Amerindians, etc..

And if you consider ED history to be SR history, then the two universes diverged about 13.7 billion years ago.

And what if you consider ED history to be OUR rl history? :grinbig:

Then you should probably see a professional about your inability to distinguish between reality and fiction.

It is conceivable that by the time we catch up to the 2060's the painful memory of the WTC attacks has faded and not seen as such a traumatizing event when compared to many other events.


I agree. And in fact the reference in DidS2 IS an historic reference: the shadowposter explains that back in the first years of the 21st century, the German authorities in SR had considered they were going to be far more reluctant to grant corps the right to build tall towers; a decision that seems to have been carried on, at least in SR Germany, since it's written that the '62 skyline is very similar to that of '01.
