Title: 9/11 Tribute
Post by: Ouch on March 23, 2002, 12:57:46 PM

I was out of the Country when Version 1.9 was released, so I'm sure this has been commented on prior, but just in case,

"You may fire when ready, Gridley" was changed to "Lets roll" in the opening screen.

Nicely done HT.

Ouch out

The fine Americans on the plane that crashed in the field in Penn.  tried to stop the terrorists from hijacking the plane.  One of the passengers was on the phone with his wife and he told her that him and a few others were not gonna let the terrorists crash the plane...he put the phone down and the last thing that his wife heard him say was "lets roll"  as in lets get these bastards.
