EDITORS' NOTE: Following is a transcript of President Bush's address to the nation the evening of Sept. 11.
WASHINGTON (BP)--Good evening. Today, our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and deadly terrorist acts. The victims were in airplanes, or in their offices; secretaries, businessmen and women, military and federal workers; moms and dads, friends and neighbors. Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror.
