I was there. I think it unlikely that I will ever forget, even though I sometimes wish to. But I do understand your desire that the country as a whole does not forget.
This is a quote I found from a New York art history professor: "None of us has ever liked the World Trade Tower, but, when a very conspicuous building in our city, which we expect to outlive us, is destroyed by enemy action, then it’s not only the lives of the people who are lost in it, but the lives of all of us, and the hope of future life which is cut away. And they know it. They know what they are doing.”
