The original reasons for most (dare I say all) of our national holidays have become forgotten and meaningless, and I don't think we need yet another reason to party and kill ourselves on the highways. We have enough.

Who would the reparations come from? I beleive that I heard on NPR that most of the families have received a lot in terms of cash and other donations. If the proceeds come from the terrorist cells involved, I'd certainly have no problem with that. However, I also wouldn't mind seeing some of that cash put back into the US Treasury to pay for the additional costs of security and the "war" on terrorism that we taxpayers have been shouldering.

I think that there should be some kind of reasonably sized memorial, surrounded by a new World Trade Center.
