I just heard a radio snippet of a line I beieve to be from Mayor Bloomberg speaking at Ground Zero, in which it was said that the events of 9/11 "united us in a common memory, a common story."
A commom "story"? The Tales of Peter Rabbit, or of Washington chopping down the cherry tree - things such as those unite us in a "common story".
9/11 is more than a "story"; it's history, and as such should unite us in a more important way, with a common resolve.
