There are opinions what this monument reminds them of.

I bet it involves a body part.

Yep, and after I read about it, it reminded me of an episode of Everbody Loves Raymond. The mother got into sculpturing, and made some thing that ended up resembling a body part. I never thought about it until after I read the artical, but after I did I said OMG. Search around, you will find it, I thought it was a little too much to post it.

I know what people think about what it looks like. To me, it looks like a gift from one group of people to another. Maybe there's some underlying motive beneath it, maybe not. What I see right now though is work of art dedicated to people who lost their lives.

I don't buy into the theory along with it they they duped us, and until I read about what someone imagined it was, never crossed my mind. To be honest, I have never even herd of this monument before, and wondered why it was such a well kept secret. Didn't have much publicity, at least on the west coast.

Was something I was going to mention. I'm a tad upset that this didn't get more coverage. I don't like that I'm only just now hearing about it.

But, I DID get a slight impression of its looks right when I first saw the picture. I chalk it up to my immaturity though.

I chalk it up to dirty minds! Seriously I never ever herd a word about this monument, its not a small thing. Its located next to an Aircraft carriar on display . I supose its pretty well known about back there, but overshadowed by the WTC thing.
