PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"My idea for the new buildings once Ground Zero is all cleaned up." |
Sure, it's not very creative, but I think it's the best. Build them again. EXACTLY THE SAME. Same height, same color, same location, orientation, EVERYTHING EXACTLY THE SAME. With of course, much stronger building materials and capable of withstanding nukes.I say, stick a memorial somewhere in there, but the skyline must be the same. No new building, no new skyline. Make them again, exactly the same, that way, when you watch an old movie or TV show, and they show up, you don't cringe at the thought of them not really being there anymore. That's my idea, and dammit I like it. Not only is it a big F you to the bastards that did this horrible thing, but it will also be a great symbol that America will not change for them or for anyone. I say rebuild them. EXACTLY. No new added features. Put the antenna on the north tower just like last time. Restore the skyline.

8. "RE: Sorry, Crimsyn" |
Oh goodness. I posted that a long time ago, back when I first joined and didn't know anything about the boards. The way I see it now, one year later, is basically this : Yes, rebuild. Build them the exact same as they were. They were there for a reason, not just for looks, but for an acutal purpose. People worked there everyday. It wasn't just something to make the skyline interesting. Build it back and put the same companies right where they were. Chances are, an attack won't happen again. If it does, then our National Security sucks ass and we've all got a problem. And if it does happen again, nuke the hell outta whoever does it.  I think that I am better than the people who are trying to reform me. -- Edgar Watson Howe

4. "I nice symbolic idea, but" |
the problem is that even if you go to the trouble to rebuild the towers, thus making a strong statement to Bin Laden, etc., you still have to find people to work in it. Just as putting them back up would be a terrific f-u to the terrorists, blowing them up again would be an equally big f-u for them to throw right back at us. I've worked in downtown NYC for the last 13 years and I can tell you that only fools would be in any rush to take a job at a new WTC tower. My brother-in-law is still in the Empire State Building, and hates it. There is a constant flow of people getting out of there, though it's kept quiet.We, along with those in DC, live under the constant, depressing knowledge that when the next attack comes, it's going to happen either here or there. The question for me is whether or not I'll get home next time. For the last two weeks, all the nightmares have come flooding back. Nightly nuclear explosions and crashing planes fill my dreams and I suppose I can look forward to a couple more weeks of this. Yes, it's my choice to continue to come here every day, and when I allow myself to sit and contemplate it, I question why I do it. But right now, with the given job market and the monthly bills, my choices are slim and none. This next week is really going to suck, but at least I'm still alive.
