POLL: Off topic but I wanted to ask this. it has been driving me nuts and want to see what everyone else thinks. Should the World Trade Center be rebuilt in New York? Keep this thought in mind, they are rebuilding the Pentagon and people died there too. As you might guess i'm for choice 1 or 2

RE: A WTC tower design if originals aren't built again

Yes rebuild them as they were, as well as including a memorial. Nice tower design tho Bill...reminds me a bit of the Petronas towers with the suspended walkways.
