My sentiment is similar to yours. The best memorial that we could make to the dead, IMHO, is to rebuild the WTC and get back to business.

But I could certainly understand if folks decided that a more traditional memorial is apropriate.

So the image I sent around earlier was of the WTC flipping the bird to
our enemies overseas. While I'm not sure if that exact architecture
would be the most appropriate configuration for the site, I do believe
that the country should rebuild the whole complex, taller and stronger
than before. And with a massive American flag flying from the top.

I may not ever be able to enter a skyscraper without thinking of
airplanes, but I will not stop entering skyscrapers. And I do not think
we should stop building them.

Rebuilding the World Trade Center would be an excellent display of
American resolve and pride. We will not be bowed. (And to those who
know the code, a big "fuck you to anyone who thinks they can scare
us".)

Yes/no?
