No, it's the fact that American factories are treating 9/11 like a huge product placement and slap 9/11 on generic products.

That's what I originally thought in the first place.

It's just that I didn't include that in my post.

My bad there.

The 9/11 Memorial will cost $23 for general admission.

A memorial.

First responders that were there will be allowed to go in free, though.

Oh well, better than most other stuff we try out.
