| Thanks for the link to the story. I had forgotten they were using steel from the Twin Towers to help build a warship.  Wheels

| Years ago, I had a photograph given to me by one of my Uncles. It was the USS New York (BB-34) plowing through the waves under full steam. To a kid, that old B&W phot was the epittamy of cool. And now, every time I see the name of the new ship, I keep thinking of the battlewagon!
