I almost didn't see it. So many people in the park trying to sell their cheap fake crap it's hard to see anything else around them. MAA had 1 more picture left on the cam so we were able to get it. I'll post it on here tommorrow.

It amazes me that people on chat forums ask these questions, when google is just a couple clicks away:

http://www.theflight93project.com/
http://movies.about.com/od/moviesinproduction/a/flight93081605.htm
http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/tribune-review/entertainment/movies/reviews/s_401067.html

Appears the move is being made with the support of the families, adnb that there are more 9/11 movies being made.

No word on what will be done with the profits.

I'm guessing the producer is going to buy a solid gold toilet...

When I said this I was refering to the way the buildings should be remade. And the specifications that will be put into them...I was making a point that since I have never seen the actual skyline of newyork ever before I have no actual impact of what happened in the overall scheme of things...Nevermind my oppinion is really confusing to be portrayed to everyone...:lol:

Here is that picture of the sculpture that stood in front of the Trade Center. It now stands in Battery Park. Sorry the pic is so big.

I think we should just rebuild the towers as they were also...I agree with Padre, just to say F- you to Al Qaida.."No matter what damage you do to us, we will always be here you bastards!"

I joined the military for not just college benefits but also to get back at those terrorist fucks anyway I could possibly do so. I went to Iraq in 2004 and I will most likely go back either there or A-stan this May. HUA!!! BF2 REAL LIFE...lol

Hey, what's Iraq like? Does it seem like the people are coming around, is it 'winnable' or does seem like it's going to be a long haul.

I was in the "Sunni Triangle" for 5 months. I was at a base called LSA Anaconda, its about 45 miles north of Baghdad and 25 miles or so south of Tikrit (Saddams birthplace). People in our area freakin hated us. We were mortared/rocketted on a daily basis at our base. I think I counted about 250 attacks the whole time I was there.

But, there were some locals who were really grateful that we were over there trying to help them set up a democracy.

We did do a lot of good stuff over there...but of course, the news people didnt care about good, they only wanted to see the "bad" stuff. We built schools, water treatment facilites, communications stuff, etc.

Do I think the war is winnable? YES.

It will just take a loooong time. I dont see us pulling out completely for at least 5 years. We will definitely keep bases over in Iraq.


(sorry if I got this post off topic)
