No flames from me. THREE SQUARE MILES for the thing, topped off with a victory crescent facing Mecca...er, a semi-circular columnade facing the the sunrise...

Unfortunately, many local working farms were taken to create this four square mile (!) memorial. This was not the Battle of Gettysburg; I’m sure this will irritate the 9/11 hagiographers but in my view a simple memorial and an appropriate museum building would have sufficed, without the disruption and ongoing expense of millions to taxpayers.

No argument here. We don’t need 2220 acres (largely seized by eminent domain) and all the Park Service trimmings. I personally would’ve liked to have seen maybe a statue of Todd Beamer and the passengers rising from their seats preparing to fight back against the terrorists. Celebrate their defiance and willingness to go down fighting, y’know?

I tend to agree with you. I ain’t ‘fraid of no flames. :)
