On Monday, Sept. 11, this year, I flew back to Dulles International Airport from Minneapolis and had a déjà vu moment. Five years earlier, I had driven out to Dulles, scheduled to fly to Norfolk, Va., to talk to government ethics officers. When I checked in, the first plane had just hit the World Trade Center, with speculation that it was a small private plane that had lost its way. When the second plane hit and it became apparent that this was no accident or pilot error, we were quickly called back from the jetway.
