i disagree. if the terrorists wanted to cripple us, they would kill maynerd. he is a national treasure!!

There's too much monetary pressure to build to allow sentimentality to delay this for too long. All the concepts so far have preserved the footprints of the towers as park/memorial space and that's great. But the rest will get developed again.

NYC depends too heavily on that district for it's economy. Silverman's lawyers will be able to apply too much pressure under the lease agreement. Not to mention that the construction industry has been slow to dead since 9/11 and this construction project would have them all rolling in work for years. So, you'll have every trade union in the city pushing for it. And all the downtown businesses that have been suffering.

i think they should build a huge water park! the slogan would be "quenching the fires of hate".
one of the slides would be the "ride to freedom". i would like that.

The one with the waterfalls would be pretty, but I bet homeless people would swim in it. Plus it might be kind of Vegas-like.

the water park idea includes a waterfall that you jump off from. its called "dive for justice"

Into a shallow reflecting pool labeled as 20 ft deep, so the tourists smash their skulls open & die. :thumbs-up:

the dead tourists would be left in the reflecting pool to give the memorial aspect of the water park some realism

SEE!!

I'm not the only one who wants a pyramid:

Quote:Again, I think that everyone should just shut the fuck up about what will be built at the WTC site. It's not your choice, you don't have the knowledge, money or political pull to make it happen anyway. So, shut the fuck up, sit the fuck down and "know your role".

K1ds been dying to finally say this to a bunch of white people.....

Quote:So, shut the fuck up, sit the fuck down and "know your role".

Which reminds me..... we are white, we have no "role" ;-)

Quote:If enough people are all saying the same thing loud enough, the people who do have the power are forced to listen.

What color is the sky in your world? You know who's gonna make the decision about what gets built there? The motherfuckers that own it, and the gov't. That, loosely translated, means a bunch of rich old white dudes.

You are truly delusional if you think that they are going to build something that makes emotional sense. They are going to build the biggest, most efficient use of space, most profitable building that they can get a permit for. The only thing holding them back might be the fear that people probably have about working in that location. But let's be honest, people are going to rent out the offices in that location. They always have, and they will again.

Quote:we are white, we have no "role"

Your role, as whitey, is to oppress those who are less fortunate than yourself. :crackhead:

Quote:That, loosely translated, means a bunch of rich old white dudes.

Alright, so if enough white people get together...

....its called a star trek convention

It's called a discussion k1d, something you ask for, then shit on when it comes.

Dude, if you get enough white people together, you can convince them that there's a man up in the sky that created everything and controls everything that happens in the world. And, that this man with all of his infinite wisdom had only 10 rules for people to live by. If you live by these 10 rules, and go to church, and molest little children, then one day you will get into "heaven". Heaven, a pillowy place in the sky, filled with eternal happiness. But, if you go against his will, you will rot forever in the fiery pits of Hell. But he loves you. (Thank you George Carlin)

I just hate the fucking fantasy, that's all. It reminds me of the people in my office a few months ago. Everyone had to chip in to buy a shitload of lottery tickets for the big game. The next day, I was the only who still had his $5, while they had their shattered dreams and were $5 in the hole.

I guess my point is why waste energy on false dreams. You wanna design something? Design a meal for a homeless person. Otherwise, keep your altruistic wholesome bullshit idealisms to yourself. "We have to memorialize the WTC site to remember those who lost their lives." FUCK YOU!!! Remember them by making sure their deaths were not in vein(or is it vain? that one always messes me up), not by writing their names on the wall.

Quote:Dude, if you get enough white people together, you can convince them that there's a man up in the sky that created everything and controls everything that happens in the world.

I thought God was black. A white God woulda made the world a better place.

If God was white, he would have created the world in one day.

Shouldn't this be in the Satan discussion thread. I wanna talk about the pyramid idea.

Pyramid schemes are for suckers, I think they should make it a sphyinx(sp?)

Leon or Michael?

leon, we could make his tooth gap the front door
