2951/2996



James Christopher Cappers aveva 33 anni. Abitava a Wading River, sobborgo di New York, dove lavorarava. Lavorava a Marsh&McLennan, il maggior broker assicurativo del pianeta.
'11 Settembre 2001 si e' recato, come di routine, al suo ufficio. Al World Trade Center. Era uno dei 295 dipendenti di MArsh& McLennan che non sarebbero mai tornati a casa. Perche' James Christopher Cappers e' una delle 2996 vittime dell'11 Settembre. Ognuna di loro aveva una storia ed una vita, come l'abbiamo io e chiunque legga questo blog. Aveva, appunto.


2,996 is a tribute to the victims of 9/11.
On September 11, 2006, 2,996 volunteer bloggers will join together for a tribute to the victims of 9/11.
Each person will pay tribute to a single victim.

We will honor them by remembering their lives, and not by remembering their murderers.
James Christopher Cappers will be honored by John Christian Falkenberg at the blog The Mote in God's Eye. This was the 2951th blogger to sign up for the 2,996 Tribute project.


The original idea for the 2,996 project came from D. Challener Roe (main web site, Rough Draft blog 2,996 Project Home Page). Bloggers who heard about the idea volunteered at a prodigous rate -- within just a few weeks, over 800 bloggers had signed up to make a tribute on September 11, 2006, to honor a 9/11 victim. The volume of work in manually coordinating these hundreds of folks signing up was a bit overwhelming -- some automation was needed! That need resulted in this web site.
