I agree with pretty much everyone...911 shouldn't become a National Holiday for all the above listed reasons. But I do believe it would be nice to see a moment of silince, memorials and special events to remind us so we never forget.

It's hard to say who should get what. I know that had my father been killed in the 911 incident I'd want justice...not necessarily money. But I'm also the oldest of four kids...four kids my mother could not support on her own. So it's hard to say. But I think most of the survivors have been well "embursed" for what happened with donations.

I think something should be built there and that it should be office space. I am not in favor of a memorial structure for many reasons and one of them is there is STILL no WW2 memorial, so why should we build one for 911? Maybe I'm a little bitter, but I feel if anyone deserves a memorial structure first it's the persons that lost their lives in WW2.
