Unfortunately, you are probably right - especially with the massive payoff$$ to 
the families of the 3000+ victims - some of whom otherwise would never let the 
story die. Is this a case of 'buying silence' to some degree?

How much did the Katrina victims get, by comparison ?  For the most part -nada, 
but that was a different kind of tragedy, or was it?  ... what was the real 
difference- was it the poverty of the victims, skin color, or was it the clear 
lack of high-level involvement?  i.e. in 9/11 was a metaphorical  'guilty 
conscience' involved somehow - on the payor end, which was absent with other 
tragedies where nothing was paid out to victims families ?

Maybe this genius could tell us:

OTOH - war criminals going back to the Nazis are still being hunted down, if 
they have not all died due to old age. If the Nazi's had won, would we even 
know about the death camps?

I think that some remnants of 9/11 will be with us for a while, but "history is 
written by the winners" even in the age of electronics and the Internet -- and 
if the Bush legacy continues for 4 more years,  hope for truth in this incident 
is almost lost.
