So, they are finally starting to build a replacement for the World Trade Center. A cowering hunk of ugly steel with a giant antenna on top so it can cheese its way into a claim of being the US's tallest building.

But what really gets me, is that construction is due to be completed sometime in 2012.

In other words, it will have taken us 11 years to rebuild it. For those counting, that's 3 years longer than it took us to get to the moon once we'd decided to do so.
