I, too, think that it has become a caricature of what it could have been. Like you, in many ways it was squandered, smothered by ideology.<br /><br />I went to the Newseum in DC this spring and went through their display and watched their video about 9/11. To see this again I realized that everything else pales by comparison. I left that area in tears, and noticed that there were multiple tissue boxes placed around the centerpiece of a destroyed antenna. I am not alone in mourning what happened that day, but I'm going to focus on this image that you show--it is what we do with it that matters. It's the going forward that makes a difference.Letterpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13983311236791267553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-74665824321322222802011-09-16T16:17:01.177-04:002011-09-16T16:17:01.177-04:00What a striking photo.
