Russel, sir: I know it is the Year of Independence.
.....GROUND ZERO to 1776 esteem.....I did make a visit to 'Ground Zero' and Staute of Liberty. My point was to the close of .....the metre. The height could be changed to 540m or 545m, in gaining ground for SI-implementation and metric learning. Popularisation of the 'metric system and SI iis the moot reference', while my grand children study in United States.
Incidentally, I also sent a complete document of my work on Time/Calendar to President New York Academy of Science while being there, for possible study and comments, early last year.

*****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!
And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule! ***** ***** ***** *****

I think the idea here is that "1776" is the year of independence for the US and the height, in feet, is symbolic. I don't quite think we are ready for a tower 1776 m high. I'm not quite sure what the Architect wold have done if we were truly a metric country, his concept might not have even ever occurred to him and that would also be a shame.

>>> "Brij Bhushan Vij" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09/11/03 06:59AM >>> Hi all: Good Morning America into newer hopes. A day to remember for all of us, when I learnt of the attack on Twin Trade Towers, and the tension we had for several hours - especially knowing my children, were right there at the spot. What ever is done, the mempry of that day's events one can't ignore from thoughts of the familes of those, who lost their 'dear one's'. India's role might have been criticised, BUT fighting terrorism and 'not Islam' has been this country's priority. May I join 'billions of Americans and immigrants' on behalf of my country and family in wishing to convey our reciprocatory thoughts, in rebuilding GROUND ZERO to 1776 esteem (I shall not call feet BUT 541.3248 metre high). Whosoever choose this height in feet is NOT DOING justice to the cause of metrication in United States. The height could be changed to 540m or 545m, in gaining ground for SI-implementation and metric learning.
