The Crescent of Embrace
That's the description of the monument to those killed on Flight 93. Do they know that a crescent is a symbol of Islam? Or was this someone's idea of reaching out to Muslims? It's a sour note.
It'll be composed of wind chimes and maple trees. One wind chime can be soothing, but one for every person on the plane?
I was thinking of a really BIG ball of twine symbolizing . . . whatever. An embrace of twine? It makes as much sense.
On further reflection, I decided that the thing looks reminiscent of a crater. Another reason to hate it.
