Would you work in the towers if they were rebuilt?

No, but only cause I'd have to move to New York. If I already lived in the area, sure why not?

Sure why not, cant let previous experiences put terror into the future, hence terrorism.

yep...there won't be any more plane hijackings for quite some time, until our security measures start to slack again...

they arent going to let air traffic any where near there.

I do think they should rebuild the towers bigger than any buildings before them. Its only fitting that the US should have the tallest building in the world.

i think those monstrosities in china and malaysia are starting to stress known construction techniques for height. Besides, to beat those, there's got to be way more land to build up the base on than is available in the wake of the world trade centers. I believe I read on CNN that the WTC held spots 5 and 6, and the ones above it are a lot taller.

I would work there.. (provided the job is realistic given my current skillset, of course) Especially given that I'm currently unemployed..

The only problem I would have with working in the towers if they were rebuilt is that they would be in NYC which is a fun place to visit but not a place I would ever live in.

It would probably be the safest place in the world for civilians to work after they are rebuilt. Yes, If I lived in NYC.

I would... very unlikely that I will ever get a job offer anywhere near them but if I did... it wouldn't bother me in the slightest

Exactly, if we don't rebuild Tall Towers what kind of Statement is that?

With Interceptor Missles deployed in key locations for all tall buildings in every city especially New York and Jet Fighters are on scramble alert for this type of activity it is not likely to ever happen again.

what are they paying? If they're paying me a good salary for my skills, yes. Just like any other place.

What about other types of attacks? Bombings, shootings, what have you, these will definitely be targets. Are there missiles and jets protecting the area now?

There is always that possibility, the Twin Towers went through Bombings, Japan subway gassed and what Isreal endures daily. The planet is a sucky place to live because of a lot of nuts out there, just have to deal with it unfortunately. "A Nut is a Nut no matter how you crack it."

sure why not. terrorists aren't stupid, they aren't going to try that again. first of all everyone on a plane being taken by terrorists would have suicidal passengers rushing any idiot stupid enough to try. u know u do crazy sh*t if u know ur gonna die anyways, nothing to lose. airports are paranoid now.

terrorists look for a weakness. so who knows, maybe next hit will be on a stadium or something with explosives. or any other public place, maybe a suicide bombing in a mall. u gonna go to games? movie theaters? malls? theme parks? u can't live life paranoid of terrorists:p

Not me personally, too many ghosts. Lost too many friends there. I won't even go down to the area. Maybe after some time passes.
