It's not a crescent. It's just not. It's not exactly a seciton of a circle, but it's more that that a crescent.

So I don't buy this. The writer goes at length "proving" many recondite things, but the critical thing to prove, that the shape he is complaining about is a crescent is taken as proven. That kind of sloppiness makes me think this is silly and over-exaggerated.

No sale.

"Crescent of Embrace" will feature a Tower of Voices, containing 40 wind chimes -- one for each passenger and crew member who died -- and two stands of red maple trees that will line a walkway caressing the natural bowl shape of the land.

Your feelings about what it looks like are irrelevant:

The title "Crescent of Embrace" was that given by the architect designer and accepted by the memorial committee. QED.
