In the thread Larry mentions, I questioned a company who was apparently
noisily giving a token amount to the WTC charity. I questioned their
motives. Tim and John claimed that perhaps I was being insensitive. Perhaps I
was. I welcome both John and Tim's opinion (although not the tone). But I do
not want to be lectured to by Larry on this, as he has already made his
views clear on those seeking to gain from 911:

Larry:
OK, I think excessive profiteering is a bit despicable, yes. But ponder this.

I would like to have a small piece of the WTC because I want a tangible
reminder of this tragedy, something to spark discussion with my kids or
grandkids, and don't ever want to forget that horrid day.

No doubt, if one is willing to pay a premium, a blood soaked piece of debris
can be had?
