it's an attack on all of us in pittsburgh. and because we're so special, such a special tight-knit community, that we'll get through this and hopefully we'll be stronger. but it's going to be a long haul and we just have to really take it day by day. people who send their words of comfort, it means a lot to us. and we've been getting these words and different acts of people writing letters, donating money. and it just means a great deal. but of course when we recover from a tragedy like this there's more to it and there's action needs to be taken. and maybe we can talk about that at another time. but in the short term it's the specialness of pittsburgh which will help all of us heal and move forward. >> rabbi chuck diamond -- >> i could have -- >> go on. >> i could have told almost the same story as the rabbi. i live down the street my grandparents' old house and i just met the guy who used to own my house, and i know two previous owners as well. marcus, you're welcome home anytime, my friend. my door's open. >> thank you. >>
