As I think back about all of the historical events--the Challenger Disaster, Princess Diana's death, The Oklahoma City Bombing, Osama Bin Laden's demise--that I have a mental image of, I remember as much about the messenger as the message.I distinctly remember someone coming into my Mom's office to announce that the space shuttle Challenger had crashed, a newspaper headline with the sad news that Princess Diana had died, and the telephone call from by brother-in-law about Bin Laden.
