 Although it is not directly referenced what happened to black tirteen, King does make specific reference to September 11th in the final book. When Jake leaves through the kitchen of the Dixie Pig he passes a poster that says:  'Visit September 11th 2001! Tix still available for this wonderful event! Asthmatics Prohibited w/o Dr's certifucate' Just thought it was worth mentioning.  dettawalker
