"Until the bonfire stack collapsed in 1999, Aggies gathered wood and timber to build a huge bonfire, which symbolized the burning desire to beat the hell out of t.u. and the undying love that all Aggies have for Texas A&M."
"On November 18, 1999, at 2:42 a.m., tragedy struck Aggieland when the Bonfire stack collapsed. Twelve Aggies died due to injuries sustained in the collapse."
Still hurts.

It always will, honey.
It hit me on about the 10th memorial: You don't ever get over it; you learn to get through it.
The beauty of The Aggie Network: Each of us is our brothers' and sisters' keeper.
So none are alone.
Sleep well tonight, Ags.

And to this day it still strikes me as eerie that the number of people lost would total -- 12 (given the importance of 12 in Aggie tradition).
