Story is about the recent call the rename the new building where the World Trade Center used to be from Freedom Tower to One World Trade Center.
Ok, where's the news? I see that there is huff over the name, but who cares about the name? Do I have to quote Bill S. here? "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet." Exactly. Who cares what it is called when the new building is erected? What matters is the symbol it represents. Sure the name should be fitting, but what better name than what it was originally called? Yes it represents Americans ability to rebound after a huge terrorist attack, our fortitude, and our desire to get back on our feet. But if we want to remember something by the words "Never Forget", then the name of the building will always be there. However, as I said the symbol is what matters.
Perhaps we can get to more pressing things at hand int he world instead of griping over the name of a new building. Enough of these straw men news stories.
I say, call it what you want. It your memory, and it represents where you were and what you were doing on that fateful day.
