This proposed monument design is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard of. It's got to be stopped.

this just makes it worse.
I believe I must hunt up a link to earlier FR threads on this topic.
there is simply NO WAY so many Islamic characteristics and allusions could crop up accidentally/independently in this memorial design.

Set aside all this, the name of the site is enough to make one puke.

>"Etaoin Shrdlu"
"Etaoin Shrdlu" is a pseudonym for someone in the media business, most probably the newspaper side. The "name" has been around for years.
The origins are too involved to go into fully here, but it dates back to the days of the Linotype machine and a special signal, produced by the typesetters rolling their fingers over the non-QWERTY keyboard to signal the need to correct an error in the typesetting.
Now, "Ed Sherdlu" haunts most large newsrooms, a joke by the old guys on the kids. "Ed" often appears in in-house papers as being quoted saying something weird.
Whoever used it here has their reasons, unknown to me, but like "A friend of Bill W." or "Dr. Bob," it has a special meaning to many.

The commission needs to go back to the drawing board.The commission needs to be bitch-slapped. Multiple times.
And then find a new commission.

"Zombie also links to this image credited to "Etaoin Shrdlu". "The following is likely irrevalent to anything meaningful, however, this name, ETAOIN SHRDLU sure sounds like the 8 highest frequency letters of the English language, plus a few, which as I learned them, are ETAONRIS. Just a curiosity.

What a sneaky, dirty trick,they are trying to put over on the families of the victims. But it's so blatant- I have to ask why?
Flight 93 was a failure for the Islamofacists- Why the attempt to mark the memorial/crash site with Islamic symbols pointed toward Mecca? Are they trying to send some message? Not wanting to sound paranoid, but, it seems extremely odd.
If I were Homeland Security, I'd be investigating everyone connected with this.

According to this site, the latitude/longitude coordinates of Mecca are 21.4234, 39.8262 and the coordinates of the Flight 93 crash site are 40.052, -78.8963. Using the calculator from this site, I determined that the azimuth between the two points is 124.80°. According to my Garmin unit, the azimuth to Mecca is 55 degrees, and the distance 6622 miles.

The design is disgusting and disrespectful.
The architect is either an idiot, a lover of Islamofascists or he was threatened into making it.
