My idea for a Flight 93 Memorial

Did you see the design for the Flight 93 memorial?  Go over to Michelle Malkin at http://michellemalkin.com/mt/mt-MALKIN-tb.cgi/2856  to see it.

I don't like it.  I'll write more why later, if I feel like it.

Here's my idea.  Why not have a series of markers along the flight's path?  Could radar records or cell phone triangulation be examined to make it accurate enough within 100 meters or so?  The markers would stretch across NJ, PA, OH, WV, and pack to PA.  Go to http://www.avweb.com/other/911flightexplorer.html and scroll down to see an animated flight path for Flight 93.  At each minute marker, you could stand at the marker and read about the flight, and what was happening at that particular moment.  The marker would tell you the heading, the altitude, etc.  Then you could look up and imagine what the heroes were doing to save us.

Just an idea.

Slightly off-topic, but relevant considering the date:

We share your concern regarding the lack of 'appropriate' 9/11 memorials. We've put our own 5 minute video memorial online. No burning buildings, no rubble, no explosions, no speeches, no screeches, no Bin Laden, no bodies. Just a remembrance of some people whose lives were cut short through no fault of their own, with poignant candid snapshots from their lives, and music.
