True enough, the buildings will be seen as something very frightening to some now. These feelings will ease with time, but we'll always remember.

I know that if my house were destroyed, I would not build it back the same way, I'd make it better. I'd design a new one with all the good things of the old version, eliminate what I didn't like, and I'd add new cool stuff.

Part of me is in denial about this whole indident. The Twin Towers *gone*? Impossible! Building them back the same would in some way make it as if this whole thing had never happened. There's a comfort in the familiar, and people resist change.

It's cowardly, I know.
