Every once in a while, a chance meeting changes your life. Every once in a while, you get a chance to change other people's lives. On Sept. 10, 2001, author Rob Quillen had a chance meeting day that changed his life forever. Now ten years later, Why Wait?, his personal 9/11 story of fulfilling a young boy's dream from tragedy is an inspiration for everyone to help change other people's lives. On a flight from Denver to Newark, N.J, Rob Quillen made the acquaintance of Captain Jason Dahl who would be piloting United Airlines Flight 93 the next day when it crashed in a field in Shanksville, Pa. during the tragic events of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. During the flight, without an inkling of the tragedy that was to come, the two men became close friends, talking about dreams and what the future might hold. Quillen was wearing a Jeff Gordon polo shirt that sparked a conversation about NASCAR. Dahl and his son, Matt, dreamed of going to a NASCAR race and meeting their hero, driver Jeff Gordon. Quillen invited Jason and his son Matt to a NASCAR race in Kansas later that month, Jason accepted the tickets. When Captain Dahl died the next day, Quillen promised himself that he would make Jason's and Matt's dream come true. He wanted Matt to not only go the NASCAR race, but he wanted to ensure that Matt got to meet Jeff Gordon. Rob details how the events unfolded about Matt's dream trip to a NASCAR race with the help of many people, including NASCAR, ESPN and NBC television and he sends a powerful message to everyone who reads his book.
