      I wish. It’s super important people see everything that happened so we have a full transparent understanding how bad 9/11 was. Google even has suppressed so much of the graphic information over the past decade. Real shame as the next generation will forget how much of a nightmare that day was.

    Why do they make these speakers rush!?!? These are survivors, witnesses, family members of victims, etc. Are the people in the audience THAT big of a hurry to get through the program? I'd rather sit and let someone like this take their time (within reason) than have some moderator cut the speaker off after 10 minutes. I hope the audience's attention spans aren't that short.The 9/11 Museum is in some ways similar to the Holocaust Museum in D.C in that if you're going to go, go there when you have time. The history, stories, exhibits, etc. are so massive and complex that they shouldn't be treated like tourist attractions that you're gonna hit up in an hour (unless you're so shallow and vain you just want to be able to tell your friends on facebook you went there and snap a few selfies).

    • @bron9674
