Yet, as frightening as it may sound, nightmares are a good thing, experts say.

Nightmares dreams with an intense fear that wakes the sleeper are normal after a crisis. Having them suggests the dreamer is working through the trauma and accepting what happened. "It's a way that our psyche has of getting through the shock and helping us to understand the world is very different," said Veronica Tonay, chairman of the Association for the Study of Dreams. "It's as if the unconscious is saying over and over again, This did happen, this did Even people who weren't directly affected by the attacks are having nightmares about them.

Before waking up, she sees the face of Jesus. Kolberg, a student at John F. Kennedy University, believes the red eagle symbolized the anger she felt toward the United States for bombing Afghanistan.

Yet she also woke up hopeful. "It vas more than a feeling," Kolberg said. "It was like I know everything's going to be OK." Jeff Grace didn't have his terror-related dream until two months after the attacks. In it, the 34-year-old network analyst from Framing-ham, is traveling near New York with his family.

She found the bin Laden dream ultimately comforting. "At the end of the dream there was this real sense of thankfulness that I was alive," said Ridberg, a sign language interpreter who was out of town on the day of the attacks. Considering all the people who were wounded in the attacks or witnessed them, the emergency crews that responded, and friends and relatives of the dead, tens of thousands of people may be experiencing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder including nightmares, said dream researcher Kelly Bulkeley.

"They read it on the WebTV then they want that hard copy," she said. "They fold it up and carry it with them." Each student from Professor Liang Chee Wee's management information systems course at Luther College also spends at least an hour per week at the Aase Haugen Homes. "They have seen the joy that a message can bring to a resident," Wee said. "They see the courage of residents, many old enough to be their grandparents, who embrace new technology. The WebTV program has become such a big part of Aase Haugen residents' lives that it has even crept into their funeral services.

When 92-year-old Agnes Spilde, who used a pencil eraser to type out messages because of arthritis, died in June, her son stood up at her service to address the congregation, Monroe said. In his arms, he carried a laptop. "Grandma," he said.

When his e-mail arrived, they brought the woman down to the WebTV and pulled her up quite close to the 27-inch screen.

"My hands get shaky and you can't hardly read my writing," she said. "That's why I enjoy the e-mail. I prefer the family letters but those joke letters are fun too." Dozens of e-mails flood into Aase Haugen daily. They come from children, grandchildren, cousins and grand-nieces in places as far-flung as Scotland, Singapore and Australia. For residents who are hard of hearing, talking on the phone is a chore.

They can reconnect with loved ones through dancing cards and birth announcements, digital photographs and ultrasounds on great-grandchildren-to-be. The WebTV system has been especially valuable for encouraging grandchildren to keep in touch, Monroe said.
